Of course, we are all aware that the ubiquitous Mr Dale is keen to find a nice seat to run in, and in Suffolk Coastal, perhaps the perfect opportunity has finally come onto the market.
How could one not want to represent Woodbridge, with its fine dining and even finer shopping? Or Aldeburgh, with its links to Benjamin Britten, its atmospheric shoreline and cosy cottages occupied at weekends by city dwellers in search of peace and tranquillity? Best of all Southwold, with a more than decent brewery (Adnams, the beer from the coast), the products of which he quite possibly enjoyed during his three years at the University of East Anglia (I know that I did)? But don't overlook Peasenhall, where the local butcher makes some excellent black pudding, or Orford, with its austere castle and avocet reserve, to mention but two of the villages.
Yes, there is a nuclear power station at Sizewell, and the biggest container port in the country at Felixstowe, but I'm sure that you'll like the place. So, what are you waiting for, Iain?

Steady on, old chap. A bit of decorum is called for. It hasn't even be advertised yet!
Iain,
All the more reason to visit our beautiful county for a look around.
I understand that Seckford Hall is perfect for a romantic weekend, good food, brisk walks in the crisp Suffolk air, a bit of light pampering, what more could one ask for?
And no, I'm not a shareholder...
I shall be in the area next weekend should you fancy a beverage at some local hostelry or other...
Seems like fun. I'll be in Cambridge on the Saturday morning, but should be around for the rest of the weekend... I'll see if Ros has anything planned.
