"I came here for a few days just this Summer...." "Last year, as the credit crunch bit, Mr Brown modestly went to the Suffolk seaside resort of Southwold and toured the Norfolk countryside.

IT is one of Suffolk's most genteel seaside resorts. But as these dramatic pictures show, Southwold was just one of many places in the county which was battered by ferocious winds yesterday.

Queen's Head at Bramfield A lovely old building in the centre of Bramfield on the edge of the Suffolk Heritage Coast near historic Southwold. The enclosed garden, ideal for children, is overlooked by the thatched village church which has an unusual separate round bell tower. The pub's interior welcomes with scrubbed pine tables, exposed beams, a vaulted ceiling in the bar and enormous fireplaces. In...

My latest website build was for an NLP consultant. I'd never heard of NLP - Neuro Linguistic Programming - until my work on this website for my latest client, Jenny Dey, who runs NLP-based personal and business workshops from her base in Ingatestone, Essex . And it occurred to me that I have worked on websites for a very wide variety of industry, business, personal, and charity sectors. The subjects...

To take a break from the intensely detailed work I've been creating lately, I decided to spend some time practicing my basic watercolour techniques. So each day this week I've produced a small traditional watercolour painting, using a fairly loose style and with lovely diffused washes. Each of these took about 2 hours. I've put them all up for sale on the Mighty Fine Art website at quite low prices....

Why is it, when ever I have a day off work, I feel like rubbish? Not Ill, just bleurghhh. When I used to work in a factory and had weekends off, guaranteed on a saturday I would wake up with a fuzzy head and general yuckiness, no alcohol involved the night before by the way, and now I have a different job and get Tuesdays off, same again, it's a travesty. Nevermind . Had some great news yesterday,...

This fellow is the chap you will find on the front of bottles of Adnams. He is Southwold Jack dressed, if you should be concerned with such matters, in the uniform of Yorkist soldier. The pictured statue stands guard over an Adnams building in the Suffolk town (I was there last week and, while I'm sure it is intolerable in the height of the summer when half the tossers in north London descend on the...

I'm afraid this is my best effort! I don't think that my London clay soil is the best for carrots, even though I loosened it up with additions of sand to improve the texture. Still, if you are going for laughs, then this gets the biscuit! Perhaps I should run another competition - Matron's naughty vegetable show!

The generator, pictured being lowered on to the pontoon, was to have been placed five miles off Southwold, Suffolk, for a year-long evaluation that may lead to wave farms capable of powering 60,000 homes.
