Adelaide has placed third in the list of the world’s most liveable cities for 2021. It’s been a good year for Australia and New Zealand in The Economist Intelligence Unit s Global Liveability Index, with six of 2021’s top 10 most liveable cities in the world drawn from the region.
Adelaide has also taken the top spot from Melbourne as the most liveable city in Australia. This is Adelaide s highest ranking on the index since 2015 when it placed fifth and represents a seven-spot climb from a 10th place finish in 2019. The global index ranks 140 cities worldwide based on the five categories: stability, healthcare, education, culture and environment, and infrastructure.

Yaxley
Situated just west of Eye is the village of Yaxley. With a population of just 588, this small settlement’s name means ‘cuckoo-clearing’ and while it may be small, it in fact has a pretty rich history.
Yaxley is home to two important buildings – St Mary’s Church and Yaxley Hall. The former is a 12th century church which was described by art and architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner as ‘one of the most swagger in Suffolk’. The church is also home to the remnants of a medieval doom painting and a Sexton’s Wheel – one of only two left in East Anglia.
“Their boys did exceptionally well and achieved a great result.” Golds were won in the men s intermediate double sculls (Sam Wilson, William Talbot), men s intermediate coxed four (Billy McCully, Will Davidson, William Light, Wilson and Tim Bartlett), men s club singles sculls (Hamish Yeatman), men s intermediate coxed quad sculls (Wilson, W Talbot, Davidson, McCully and Ty Bishop), men s novice coxed quad sculls (Josh Bartlett, Ben Allen, Mac Brown, Blake Parker and Bishop). There was also celebration for the women who gained a silver in the intermediate coxed quad sculls (Emma Wood, Elsie Talbot, Kate Crawford, Lucy Crawford and Samantha O Neill). Bronzes went to the men s novice coxed four (J Bartlett, Ben Williamson, Allen, Parker and T Bartlett), men s novice double sculls (J Bartlett and Parker) and men s novice club coxless quad sculls (Hooper Kelly-Smith, Cameron Moffat, Liam Parker, Seb Van Den Bosch).
