'''Framlingham''' (or just 'Fram' to locals) is a small town in the county of [[Suffolk ]] in [[England]]. It is known for its 12th century castle, situated by the mere.

Oliver has hitched many times in the Framlingham area, most often between Framlingham and Wickham Market Station (misleadingly, in the village of Campsea Ashe, about 2 miles from Wickham Market) as well as Framlingham and [[Stowmarket]]. It takes him no more than 20 minutes to find a ride in either direction, though a lot of traffic is local so it's a lot better to go to one end of Framlingham or the other. Hitching east towards the A12 is slightly easier, as there are fewer side roads that way so more people going the same way as you. Also, on that side of Framlingham there is a petrol station on the main road, where one can wait and ask people for lifts.

The nearest train station to Framlingham is Wickham Market station (7 miles away) on the line between [[Ipswich]] and [[Lowestoft]] . The station isn't staffed, and has no ticket machine or barriers; you pay on the train. Often, the conductor will come round every few stops, not every stop; so when you ask for a ticket, you can get away with a cheaper ticket by saying you came from the last station. [[Oliver]] even pretended to be asleep when the conductor came through, and luckily the ticket gates at [[Ipswich ]] were open at that time in the evening (around 21:00) so he got away without paying.
