Planet Ipswich : A bridge between the Ipswiches of the world

I started www.planetipswich.com in early 2010. This site is all about the places & things that have been named after my home town of Ipswich, England. Why did I start this project? Simply because it hadn't been done before. It has now flourished into the site you se today.

Then I had the idea of doing something similar with my home county: Suffolk. So www.planetsuffolk was born in January 2011, to bring together all the Suffolks of the world.

Work: I have spent most of my working life in hotel accounts offices, until made redundant in 2009. I now work in the finance dept. at Suffolk County Council.

Other interests: Celtic languages (Gaelic/Irish/Manx/Welsh/Cornish/Breton),football, rugby league, cricket, bigfoot/sasquatch/yeti phenomena, Buddhism, Taoism, mah jongg, a wide variety of music & lots of other things that just happen to take my interest at the time.

Personal: Born Ipswich & raised in the Castle Hill area of the town. I now live in the Stoke Park area with my wife Brenda.
