Once we have sold our house in Spalding we are moving to Sutton having fallen in love with it. We have a business of doorstep deliveries of Pet and Wild bird Foods and would be interested to know if there is a demand for this in Sutton and surrounds. If you lovely people are interested I will come up each week to deliver before we move.

Just a query. I bought a water colour twenty years ago from a sale at Scunthorpe Central library. The library used to 'loan' out the pictures, the idea didnt last long & the pictures were sold. I am sure this picture was of a place in Sutton on Sea. It was up in my loft & fell & broke the frame. I have looked on the back & it says Bagmoor Farm (Will Illingworth 1984). I was hoping to locate Bagmoor Farm & send it to them, although now I cant find a record on the back of the picture that it is Sutton on Sea. I am not sure where I got the name from, or if thats what it said on the library record card! I just wondered if any one at your agency had local knowledge? Is it a place any of you know? It just intrigues me. Its just a pleasant picture that I enjoyed years ago, but I have no place for it in this house. I know its a long shot. We have got a Bagmore farm around here, but it doesnt look the same!
Thank you any way for your time.

Hi! Lovely to see so many people obviously (and quite naturally) bewitched with 'Sutton in Marisco'. I was born and grew up there (1945 to 1965), at 32 High Street which is now Watson's Hardware Store. For a child it was most exciting to go through the 1953 flood, but not so much fun for the grown ups! I'd love to hear from anyone who knew me or my brother Clive.

Hi
I am a friend of the current owners of the large house called the
Gilroes, next to the social club on Trusthorpe road.
We are aware that the house used to be the doctors surgery, also
in the early 1900's we think it was owned by a Mr Spurway ?
If anyone has any further info about the history of the property
or any elderly relatives that may remember it please get in touch.
Thanks

Does anybody from Sutton remember the Kingsley family who ran a
guest house at 38 Trusthorpe Road. I spent the summer with them
35 years ago and had a great time. travista55@hotmail.com.
Tom Travis Manchester (Sunday, July 23, 2006)
I love seeing my grandparents who moved to sutton-on-sea 8 years
ago as regularly as I possibly can. The problem I had though when
I got here was when me and my nanna want to go and see a show at
skegness because the last bus leaves Skegness at 18:10? And it would
be expensive to fork out for a taxi. I think there should be something
done about it.
Anyway though I love sutton-on-sea especially all the residents
who are friendly and always ready for a chat. I hope it never changes
:o)
Michelle from Ware, Hertfordshire (Tuesday, July 04, 2006)
I love sutton, altho im sad they altered the beach and the chalet
park has been sold off, spent many family holidays here, i shall
be returning shortly as an adult to see how much it has changed.
Anna Thompson Tamworth (Wednesday, June 07, 2006)
I moved to Trusthorpe from south London and I think living around
here has improved my life, I am only 20 and suffered with stress
due to london being a fast moving place to live. I miss all my old
friends and I still keep in touch with them. But it is worth it
for a better quality of life.
Heather Williams Trusthorpe (Saturday, May 06, 2006)
Managed to get a night away from my business, stayed at the Kingsley
Park Hotel, excellent value and welcoming host, nice one John. Had
a great meal at the Bacchus hotel, best bottle of house red we have
had in a long time, very good food as well. Beach immaculate as
always.
We will be back...again, soon.
Graeme from Loughborough (Wednesday, May 17, 2006)
I just wanted to say how much i love sutton on sea, i grew up there
with my dad and brothers and sisters, sadly my dad passed away so
i had to leave good old sutton at 14, im now 21 and visit all the
time with my soon to be husband, i would love to hear from anyone
who remembers me (jackie bevis)email me on bevinder@hotmail.co.uk
I use to live in a bungalow with my family off high gate lane on
a little dirt track 2 min walk from the beach, i also would like
to say that the high gate holiday park has really ruined the look
of how it use to be,i no before it was just a field but to me it
has ruined it as i remember the good old days playing hide and seek
in the grass with all my brothers and sisters!If i had the money
i would buy my dads bungalow back and live there for the rest of
my life,maybe one day eh? big shout out to all my sutton m8s
Jackie Bevis from nottingham (Thursday, April 06, 2006)
To come to Sutton in April, with my daughter, son, both adults,
and 3year old grand-daughter, and two dogs, has become a family
tradition over the last few years. The fresh air beautiful beaches,
clean town, friendly people, I could go on, make it a perfect start
to the summer months. Folk who go abroad don'tknow what they are
missing!!!!!

Richard from Hertfordshire (Tuesday, January 31, 2006)
We visited Sutton on Sea in April 2005 for the 1st time. We have
fallen in love with the place. We are looking for a detached bungalow.
It ticks all the boxes for a couple of young at heart golf playing
60yr olds. We are looking for the catch. Is the catch that houses
take a while to sell??? If so then thats our kids problem!!! Advice
please.

I would love to give a winter home to a pair of donkeys but have
no idea how to go about it! We live on a small holding near Newark
in Nottinghamshire, have plenty of grazing, can provide excellent
care and shelter - we just need some donkeys!
Any help you can give - such as a contact telephone number - would
be GREATLY appreciated by me (and my two children!)
Many thanks in anticipation, Penny McQuilkin penny@imconsult.co.uk

just got back from annual trip to sutton on sea, great week weather
wise , new holiday home - wonderful !! as usual great locals .
was disturbed to hear about the council ripping putting green and
tennis courts up and putting in five- a - side football pitches
instead !!!!! where are their brains they will spoil the town forever
and introduce a yob culture instead.

Pleased to see the paddling pool has been finished and is great,
could not keep the kids out of it! The upgrades work well.
If you want a family break, with no arcades or amusments to tempt
money out of your pocket then this is the place. Make your own fun
on the excellent ( and spotlessly clean) beach. Took a promenade
chalet for the first time, well worth it to store your clothes,
belongings, granparents etc in!
We will be back.
G Fisher from Loughborough (Monday, June 27, 2005)
Our family have been regular visitors to Sutton over the past 50
years, starting with an annual holiday for the children. My wife
and I are coming for four days from July 4 to 8, and we wondered
if we could a council chalet in advance. I could pay by cheque forwarded
to you or by Switch, if possible. By the way, most of our holidays
were spent at Breakwater Bungalows, and the weather didn't seem
to matter.
Denis From Leicester (Monday, June 13, 2005)
Just wanted to well you how much we love the site we live in Splading
and have a chalet at sutton and when we miss it in the week we can
surf the sutton site and know its there waiting for us
Best wishes

Martin (Tuesday, July 13, 2004)
Spent many happy years there as a child, took my parents and my
children there on Sunday 4th July, the place has not changed at
all, except.....the reason for going mainly was the happy memories
of the paddling pool and to let my kids enjoy it, but it was closed
for rework, talking to locals we discover that the EEC has had a
hand in it and almost forced the pool to be filled in!, As it stands
it seems contactors are not doing there jobs and finishing the rework
promptly. Come on Sutton councillors, this is by way one of your
most valuable assets and its demise and disrepair at present will
mean we will not be back again unless it is re-opened. The day we
visited even loacl business owners were closed as the trade from
the pool was not to be had. Other than that Sutton is a great place
with no arcades or funfair to overshadow it. ..........
