  1. Re the 62 - it has been operating some two years now since First withdrew the 63 Ipswich - Framlingham service. However it is to be extended on certain days to Saxmundham via Rendham thus restroring the Fram - Sax service, Also the Turban Centre is in Woodbridge, and Bridge St in Framlingham!

    Difficult to prepare these details when the better half is trying to divert your attention onto other things!!
