Robert
and Heather Hunt live at
Sunningdale, Lt. Thurlow
Green, with sons Marcus
who is 17 and Paul who is
13. They have been in the
village twenty years and
they have seen more houses
built in their area and
the changes taking place
at Manor Farm. Fewer children
use the village school and
they regret the loss of
the squash court as Robert
was a keen player.
Robert
is a builder based in Glemsford,
and Heather works for Mid
Anglia Community Health
as an administrator, specialising
in mental health care in
Haverhill.
Both
boys support local professional
football teams, Marcus being
a keen Ipswich supporter
and Paul a Norwich City
supporter.
Heather
likes gardening, cycling,
and walking. She has been
involved for eight years
in the Thurlow Fayre, most
of the time being Secretary.
She says the community spirit
in the village is not as
good as it once was, with
short term tenants not getting
so involved in village activities.
Rape fields also cause the
family problems, but on
the whole they enjoy village
life, especially since they
are lucky enough to have
good neighbours.
