We go walkabout with Rob the YouTube guy, former councillor’s gesture causes a stir, mixed reviews of SPARK Festival, how one Ipswich suburb got its name, the crumbling Commercial Hotel and the not so bright future for newsagents. All this and a stack more in this yarn over the back fence with Walter Williams and Ashleigh Mac.
