How does one come up with a news story like this? Did they submit it to the paper? Is there a roving appliance reporter?

Ipswich is a slow everything town.

gjd, that would be one way to fill TV time during the writers' strike: Roving Appliance Reporter!
Or maybe not.

Hang on. I'll be right back. There is someone at the front door asking me about my blender. With a picture this could make the front page of the local paper!

The toaster will fit right in with the decor in that house with the pink toilet.

They sure don't make appliances the way they used to.

I think Ipswich is most famous for being the palindrome of Bolton.

Shoddy reporting! They needed to tell us the brand of toaster. Oh well, it probably isn't being made any more. :)

I'll have you know we take toast very seriously here in Ipswich. Also, tea!

I know this is an older post, but I think it's still relevant... Ipswich has changed as far as news coverage goes, which seems to be a mostly recent change. If you live locally, it's a great move!
