Norwich

Well what can you say about Norwich? It has the best mix of culture if thats what takes your fancy , social life and the sea reasonably near by. Not just any sea the North sea and the beautiful Norfolk coast which always reminds me of the austere side from a Charles Dickens novel.Sadly the coast is eroding , in places , but if you take the A149 coastal road from Wells to Hunstanton you will be amazed by Norfolk and its micro culture of life. I went there in the late 70's to a small place called West Runton , again on the coast , to the Pavilion and all the big bands played there prior to the big release. It was so small and quaint that the nights takings were held so I am told in the oven.The story goes that one lad so drunk , and whatever , wakes up to look for 4 food after the place is locked up goes to the kitchen the rest is history but the money stayed there! Thats Norfolk a nice place with nice people... Problem for me is I come from the rival county South Suffolk( Suffolk - South Folk Norfolk - North Folk. That aside its my adopted county and I wouldnt live anywhere else well apart for Jeddah right now anyway. The in place back in Norwich is the Golden Triangle , re living , and fantastic for pub life; I cant swear to it but 20 pubs within a radius of 2 miles is no exageration.So the moral of the story is go there I intend to late October :-)
