Hi All

just want to say I've visited Lavenham way back in 1994 and what a terrific place it is to walk amongst the historic buildings....I have three photos - the Guildhall, the Crooked House and a lovely Tudor 'row' on my lounge wall in Christchurch, New Zealand....they always get draw a comment from visitors and I enjoy telling people about our time there....Quido go see if you ever can; otherwise cybervisit!

regards Karen

  Oh Pat....I do wish I still lived in England!  Got to go back for a holiday...lol
there aren't post offices here anymore....can you believe it...and probably nothing over 30 years old if there is! yes please think of me and 'touch wood' I do get the opportunity to one day visit some of the places I've found where my ancestors lived.  (I'll just have to find my souvenir tea towel of Lavenham - it's a beauty with all the houses on it - I think I'll frame it)
