Southwold crime statistics

During our recent trip to Southwold, the Curse and I enjoyed browsing the local papers. The Southwold Organ is a local publication of the 'parish newsletter' variety, which is available around the pubs, shops and businesses of the town.

A report of a recent town council meeting started with crime statistics. PCSO Wallace reported that there had been three recorded crimes since the last town council meeting.

One was a case of criminal damage to a property, one was theft from a business premises.

The third was described as 'a case of burglary at Southwold Primary School, where cornflakes and ice-cream cones had been stolen then consumed in the grounds of the school.'

Cycling thorough Norfolk many years ago we were warned by a local of how rough it was in Cromer and to keep an eye on our bike lamps.

Bliss was it...

I hope they had something to wash them down with... Or is it linked to the infamous cream cracker and ryvita thefts in Aldeburgh?
