The snow has transformed the waterfront at Ipswich. There are even patches of ice forming in the marina.

There was a light sprinkling of snow this morning that soon disappeared. But by 10 pm this evening the ground was covered and the snow was coming down fast. The marina is now under a blanket of white.

I was able to view the creation of a replica of a Stour Lighter as part of the Managing A Masterpiece project. This exciting initiative will come to fruition in late August 2012.

Neil MacGregor hosted the reception for the Ipswich Museum in the Roman Gallery of the British Museum. He stood next to the bronze head of Claudius with its East Anglian links. There was an opportunity to view the Roman silver from various sites in Suffolk including Mildenhall and Hoxne.
