http://jonathancraig.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html

A Day On The Farm (21.12.06). It was the day that the youngest person in the family (Isabel aged 10 weeks) met the oldest member of the family (Isabel's Great Great Aunt Emy aged 89 years and 3 weeks). Here they are at their inaugural meet in the kitchen of Great Auny Emy's farmhouse. The distance from Keswick to Daddry Shield. Is 50 miles and the scenic journey that morning took a winding, hilly path into Weardale. Next door, a couple of horse boxes in cousin Michael's front yard. Upon arrival on a very...

The Disallowed Goal (29.09.06). For the first time since the 1956/57 season, Colchester United had an opportunity to play Ipswich Town in the league and at the end of 90 minutes had recorded their first league victory over Town since St David's Day 1951. Macken reacts first and slides in to beat Davison to the ball. The ball's in the net and Ipswich Town get ready to celebrate before the referee rules out the goal. Posted by Jonathan Craig @ 18:36. St Michaelmas Day Feast (29.09.06). Only 18 miles separa...

To Hell or to Connacht (02-04.03.07). It was the weekend of Phil Coppeard's Stag Do and the destination was the fine city of Galway. In the Irish western province of Connacht. On the flight from Manchester, an 'older' Irish passenger provided a brief background to the region, including reference to the Act for the Settlement of Ireland. Thankfully we chose Connacht! Was taken at AV8 Bar. The first port of call was The Skeffington Arms Hotel, or The Skeff Bar. As it's known to the locals. Richard wins the...

A parting shot of Hintelsham Hall on Sunday morning. Lancashire. Their house...

Isabel's Baptism (Sun 25.02.07). It was the morning of Isabel's baptism and the young lady was found hanging out with her Grandad. Shortly before it was time to leave for church, friends James and Jacqui Bean visited with two of their sons Joshua and Zak. Isabel is seen below in her baptism attire with the two boys Joshua and Zak. The young lady looks on nervously, hoping she doesn't cry at the font. Isabel is the only member of the party concentrating on the photographer.*. Kids on the loose! Siobhan an...

The Craigs: November 2006

http://jonathancraig.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html

The November Late Late Late Shows (04, 25 and 29 Nov). Remarkably, Ipswich Town's last three away matches have all ended in defeat by the odd goal and the odd thing about each of the three winners is that each was conceded in injury-time. The first of the sequence took place on Saturday 4 November in Burnley. Which also coincided with the fifth Annual General Meeting of the Ipswich Town North of England Supporters Branch. Below is a photo taken of a few of the Branch members standing outside the. Still f...
