And yesterday we went to Fox's marina in Ipswich where Sharon had booked us on a lunchtime River Cruise on this fine old WW2 torpedo boat. Back in the day it was fitted with twin RR Merlin engines and cruised at 55 knots.

A14/A12 Orwell Bridge, completed in 1979 and a bit of a modern engineering marvel. Mind you, it often closes in high winds!
Lovely way to finish a weekend of Golden Wedding celebrations with friends and family![]()
