Do you know anyone who has lost an Iguana? |
Can you believe that one (about 12 inches long) has been found wandering around in the woods.
If by any chance you know of anybody contact the webmanager and we will put them in touch with the person who found it and is looking after it.
Sadly this is someone's pet so I hope we can reunite owner and pet. |

HM Revenue & Customs have been contacted and have confirmed that the email HAS NOT been sent by them.
If you receive one of these emails please delete it, do not enter any of your personal details. If you are unsure whether the email is authentic please contact HM Revenue & Customs. |
Martlesham Internet Radio |
Would anyone be interested in helping to start up an experimental internet radio service for Martlesham?
The initial purpose of this service (assuming the permission of the organisations involved), would be to allow local events - potentially including church services, public meetings of the Parish Council, free live music events etc, to be streamed live over the internet, to the houses of people unable to attend these events in person. The concept could clearly be extended to include other forms of audio entertainment produced locally, e.g. commentaries on local sporting fixtures, and many other kinds of material by or about local residents.
