Many Faces of Ipswich

I had originally thought to call this "the other ipswiches", but just try saying "Ipswiches".
I constantly feel slightly pissed "Ips swicsh Schitty Counssil" all starts to run together and sound suspiciously like too much Bundaberg Rum. But back to business: Ipswich the Worldwide Phenomenon!

1. United Kingdom: Britian, Suffolk, on the Orwell Estuary on the North Sea.
2. United States of America: Massachusetts, inland from Plum Island Sound on the Atlantic Ocean.
3. United States of America: South Dakota. Anbody?
4. Australia: Queensland, on the Bremer River.
5. United States of America: New Hampshire. This one is called "New Ipswich" Yeah - like that helps.

Please insert some homily here about quilts or tapestries and the wonderful threads of meaning we carry from place to place and link ourselves to each other across time and history blah blah blah.
