1.An excellent web site, very informative and well
constructed. And thanks for the HCG plug! I'm sure I will be able
to publish some Theberton history features using material here, if
that's ok with you.

to use anything on the site.T.P. Webmaster
2.From Rae Leighton, County Councillor for The Blything
Division,
I have just found your site and for the moment have only had
time to scan it but it is without doubt one of the best of its type
that I have experienced . It really is excellent and I look forward
to reading the detail each month.Congratulations to the
compilers.Best Wishes.

8. Hi Tony,
I will get
some extra and original material on the L48 for you
early next year and perhaps when our new website
is up,we can sort out some cross-referenced
links? Meanwhile,local people and all other visitors to
your site can still obtain copies of our L48 book
post free from
www.windsockdatafilespecials.co.uk whilst
stocks last.There is an order form on our site.We are publishing
another Zeppelin book next year and at least three more
after that. One will be about the Height Climbers and
features more data on Theberton's L48 and
her sister ships.
Best wishes,
Ray.
Thanks Ray..looking forward to the
new stuff..have put in the link to your site. T.P.
9. We thoroughly enjoyed
your well organized 'Parish Council' website, particularly the
sections on history and picture gallery.
Included in the "Theberton Villagers" picture, we clearly recognize
our dearest friends, Brenda and Ken .
We were awed by
the few pictures of the interior of St. Peters. We look
forward for any subsequent views of that sanctuary and will
continue sampling the website greedily.
Sincerely,
Dr. & Mrs. George

will try to post more photos of St.Peter's. T.P.

As a fan of Eastbridge (and the
Eels Foot) I was very delighted that I was notified about
this exquisite website by my old friend John.
Happy New Year from my home town

A marvellous website, well done to
all concerned in its construction. I came to Theberton in 2006 as
part of the team that excavated the Zeppelin L48. The village is
delightful and everyone we met was so friendly. It was a great
privilige to come to your village, not in the least that it is so
beautiful and reminds one just what England is all about. I do hope
to return sometime to see Ken and Brenda with whom I share a
passion for all things historical and also metal detecting. I hope
the forthcoming book on the excavation brings desired benefits and
recognition to the village as a whole.
Regards to all

The book "In Search of the
Zeppelin War" Tempus Books will be reviewed on the

12. What a superb site! I really enjoyed the article on the
History page about the ship sunk off Sizewell in the
war..but I thought it was called the "Mangara" ? George
Benson ex-Aldeburgh now Buenos Aires.Jan 16
Thanks George. The iron-ore
carrier Mangara was torpedoed and sunk with one dead in the FIRST
World War.July 28th 1915 400 yards East of the Sizewell Buoy

Thanks Tony
Preston for aligning the pictures of sanctuary, St. Peter's Church,
Theberton which I requested on 12/26/07. I see in todays
Parish Council and St. Peters section, the church is in the throes
of fundraising for certain structural repairs. Reverand Canon
Richard and Vicar Ann are mentioned with telephone numbers but the
e-mail addresses are not included. If such could be in your
next Parish Council reporting, I would happily donate to that cause
in the name of my dearest Theberton
friends.
Thanks again.

the photos,as we used to holiday in the area in the 60s and 70s.We
loved the "Then and Now" images on the History Page.Do you have any
more please? Norman Baggot.Ely.Cambs.

Thanks Norman..yes,in
the coming months I will put on a lot more as they have been very

17. Just to say thanks for
such a fantastic website.It is better than many big towns.Thanks so
much for the gen. on the Zeppelin.My grandfather watched it burn
and I've been fascinated by it ever since and really enjoyed the
books you put me onto.Any chance of more old photos? Peter
Moskovita. Arles. France.
17/03/08.
Thanks Peter.Try the
e-book "Dawn after Dark" by Mark Mower[See History Page] for a
different insight into it...more of a Dramatized Documentary
approach. I've had so many requests about the L48 that I'm setting
up a section on the History page to put a Photo of the Month just
for the Zeppelin..with longer captions...watch this space! Tony
P.
18. Greetings.I'd like to echo
the praise just posted about your site and the Zeppelin but also
about the "Yoxford Boys" and the books you mentioned about them.Are
there any more?and can we have more photos of the
Mustangs?PLEASE!!My grandpa worked on Leiston Airfield. James G

Thanks Jim.I've emailed
you the book details.Sadly Merle Olmstead passed away on Jan
6th.His are the definitive books and he was the major force in
keeping the memories alive. I will be doing the same thing..i.e.
publishing a Photo of the Month on
the History page just for the 357th...they are all copyright, but
I'll post them and see what happens!!

Just returned from our annual fortnight in your lovely village. We
stayed in the brand new Lion Lodges instead of camping this time.
Many thanks to Caroline & Michael from the Lion Inn for
treating us like family rather than customers. Hope to see you all
later in the year.

enjoyed your stay.See you again
