Sheila o - percentage wise there are as many empty shops in Norwich as Ipswich but I suspect they are more hidden because that's the magic of Norwich ;-) always lands on its feet. Retailers aren't deserting just Ipswich they're deserting everywhere. I ... more »

I hear a constant low buzz, as if there are wasps or bees in the roof.  (It's not so bad if the windows are closed.)   This has been going on for years.  I suspect it's the power lines.
