     @glynmoody I love it and hate it. The setting, and Snape up the river, lovely. But I'll never forget it was driving in to Aldeburgh for the Festival just before the Referendum when I first saw 'Take Back Control' signs outside most houses, and realised we'd been living in a London bubble. Still, the town did shuck off the hideous Therese Coffey and actually went Labour this time, so they're not all bad.

     @glynmoody Yes, but even that 'crap town of Britan where no-one has good sex', according to my militant friend Daisy, voted to oust Therese Coffey, so it's not beyond redemption...
