Cromer Lifeboat Day This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lifeboat Day will take place on 31 July.

The boat will be open from 10am with singing by The Shantymen at 12noon.

There will be the usual Family Service at 2pm and lifeboat displays from around 3.30pm (tide dependent).

This is always a fabulous family day so please make a note in your diaries. The more the merrier!

Henry Bloggâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boat Q J and J returns to Cromer

After many years of restoration Henry Bloggs old fishing boat has returned to a prominent position overlooking the beach and within sight of the main lifeboat station.

The Q J and J is within the garden of Cromer Town Council and near to the bust of Henry Blogg. As a fitting tribute to one of the most famous lifeboat men in history, his fishing boat has been carefully restored so that future generations will be able to view it.

Unfortunately only half of the boat was in a fit enough condition to enable restoration but the remainder has been cut into smaller pieces and sold to raise money to enable the work to be carried out.

After the Mayor Tim Adams appropriately named the boat with champagne, the present coxswain John Davies - the eighth generation of his family to serve with Cromer RNLI - was pictured alongside one of his predecessors, Henry Blogg who was a distant relative.

Creamy Chicken Pasta by Ian Wales - Sous Chef at the Links

01263 824555

This is an ideal recipe that can be adapted to make it a quick and easy lunch or supper for one.

Ingredients 1 x chicken breast Drizzle of olive oil 2 gloves of garlic 01263 838383 1 sprig of rosemary (can use dried) 125g fresh tagliatelle 01263 579579 50ml white wine 300ml double cream 2 rashers of smoked bacon 50g of button mushrooms 1 x shallot (or small onion) 1 x sprig of thyme (can use dried) Firstly crush the garlic, drizzle a small amount

of olive oil in a bowl and mix with the crushed garlic with the sprig of rosemary (or a pinch of dried). Then marinate the chicken breast in this - ideally leave this for 2-3 hours in the fridge - but 20 minutes will give a taste of garlic.

Once your ready to cook your dish, using a frying pan sear the chicken with a small amount of oil in a hot pan for 2-3 minutes each side. Now place it in the oven for 10-12 minutes on 180o. In the meantime dice the shallot (or onion), slice the rashers of bacon and mushrooms. Sweat down in a pan with a small amount of oil the shallot, then add the mushrooms and bacon and reduce further.

While this is reducing add a pan of water on the stove to boil ready to blanche the pasta, season water with salt (personal preference).

Plants lost from North Lodge Park

For over 10 months, volunteers have been working in the gardens around the cafe in North Lodge Park.

Through their efforts the area is looking good, the best it has for many years. Many plants have been donated by the community, and more purchased by the volunteers. At the start of June the team suffered a major setback when some of the plants went missing. Then last week more plants have gone.

Can Rhododendron, Osmanthus and golden conifer plants walk on their own, or did they get a helping hand? If you spot them in a garden near you, please encourage them to return â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it will be a real boost to the currently demoralised team if their plants were to come back.

Now add to shallot, mushroom and bacon the white wine and cream and reduce it down to half the amount to thicken. Season to taste.

Blanche the pasta as soon as the water is to boil for 3-4 minutes if fresh pasta - allow more time if using dried.

To serve mix the pasta with the cream sauce and serve the chicken breast on top.

Do you have a Will or Lasting Power of Attorney?

A Will is a legal document which sets out your last wishes by allowing you to choose who receives your belongings and assets after you die. It is essential for you to make a Will whether or not you consider you have any possessions, or much money. If you do not have a Will when you die, then the Government decides under the Intestacy Rules how your money, property, or possessions are divided. If you are living with a partner and not married, then if you die without a Will your partner cannot inherit any part of your Estate.

A Lasting Power of Attorney is a legal document that allows you to appoint a friend or family member who you trust to make decisions in respect of your finances, property, or health if you are unable to, for example, if you are in an accident, lose mental capacity, etc. If you do not have a Lasting Power of Attorney and lose mental capacity, for whatever reason, then it may put your family in a difficult financial position by not being able to access your finances or able to deal with your property.

ROUNDABOUT SUCCESS

North Norfolk District Council has welcomed the news that work to improve the Felbrigg junction will start next year.

In an announcement last month Norfolk County Council confirmed that work will start next year to improve the junction of the A148 and the B1436 at Felbrigg near Cromer after £576,000 was pledged to fund the work.

Money has been pledged by Norfolk County Council, North Norfolk District Council, Cromer Town Council, Parish Councils of Roughton, Runton and Felbrigg along with support from the New Anglia Local Enterprise Partnership, developers and local businesses.

Cllr Hilary Cox, NNDC Ward Member and Norfolk County Councillor said “After many years of hard work trying to get this scheme off the ground we have finally succeeded, thanks to the efforts of all involved. The new roundabout will make it much easier to manoeuvre through this junction, reduce accidents and encourage vehicles that do not need to stop in Cromer to bypass it and cut congestion in the town.”

Cllr Sue Arnold, NNDC Cabinet Member and Chairman of the Steps to Safety Campaign said “I’m absolutely delighted that after so many years of campaigning by the group the funding for this much needed roundabout has been found. I would like to thank all the organisations who have helped to fund the programme of work from local people, businesses and all the councils – from parishes through to the district and to the county council who have put up the lion’s share of the funding. At the end of the day it shows that people can make a real difference in their area.”

Cllr Tom FitzPatrick, Leader of North Norfolk District Council added “We have pledged our support and £29,000 to this vital safety improvement and I’m delighted that with the support of all concerned the junction will be improved. It’s really good news.”

New car parking fees come into force Changes to some car parking charges in North Norfolk came into force on 1 July.

North Norfolk District Council agreed the changes to coastal and resort car parks earlier in the year, while freezing charges for standard car parks and annual season tickets.

Every Council-run car park in the district is designated as coastal, resort or standard – a full list can be found on the North Norfolk District Council website.

For all your gardening & landscaping requirements throughout Norfolk

The changes mean that in coastal car parks payment will be 60p for 30 minutes, £1.50 per hour or £7 for 24 hours. In resort car parks, payment will be 60p for 30 minutes, £1.30 per hour for the first hour and £1 per hour thereafter, or £7 for 24 hours.

10 % Discount

Limited Offer for first 20 Projects only in July

New signage for those car parks affected by the change has been created explaining the new charges.

Cllr John Rest, Cabinet Member for Assets, said “This increase in parking charges in coastal and resort car parks will provide a contribution towards various services provided by NNDC.

“These include looking after our Blue Flag beaches, providing public conveniences and maintaining parks and open spaces.

“Season tickets and standard car park charges remain frozen, meaning season ticket holders can park for as little as 54p per day.”

Lasting Powers of Attorney

You may be aware of the importance of making a Will, but have you ever stopped to wonder what would happen if you became unable or incapable of dealing with your affairs?

What is a Lasting Power of Attorney? A Lasting Power of Attorney is a legal document which allows you to appoint someone that you trust as an ‘attorney’ to make decisions on your behalf. This is often a spouse or a son or daughter over the age of 18. Attorneys can make decisions for you when you no longer wish to, or when you lack the mental capacity to do so. Who would you choose to look after your affairs if you were no longer able to do so?

There are two different types of Lasting Power of Attorney Property and financial decisions Health and welfare decisions *******************************

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A LASTING POWER OF ATTORNEY

If you are no longer able to look after your affairs then a special court called “The Court of Protection - Office of the Public Guardian” will supervise the control of your affairs. In many cases this could result in large legal bills often on an annual basis.

Recently Asked Questions and Answers

from the Clapham & Collinge Convenancing team By Jenny Boyle, Chartered Legal Executive in the Conveyancing Department.

Q. My solicitor says I need indemnity insurance & declaration of solvency as I'm being gifted money - why do I need this? A. If money is being gifted and the person gifting the money becomes insolvent the trustee in bankruptcy could set aside the transaction. A statutory declaration of insolvency confirms there is no insolvency at the date of the transaction, i.e that the person making the gift can meet their liabilities as they fall due. An indemnity insurance policy is an insurance policy covering the future insolvency of the person making the gift.

Q. On average, how long does it take to carry out searches on a property? A. It very much depends on the location of the property. Most of the searches come back within 48 hours of submitting the same. It is the Local Search which takes more time, it can take anywhere between 24 hours and in some instances 6 weeks! The best way to find out the time frame is to speak to the Local Authority's land charges department to check their current turnaround time as it frequently changes.

Q. We're currently in rented accommodation, when should we tell our landlord we're moving to the property we're purchasing? A. Only advise your Landlord by serving your notice upon exchange of contracts when you are legally bound to purchase the new property. Until exchange of contracts you are not legally committed to buying the new property.

Q. Can my home buyers survey be done by anyone? I've heard that the surveyor needs to be approved by our lender? A. A homebuyers survey can either be carried out by an independent surveyor or one appointed by the lender. In any event a lender will ask that you pay for a valuation for the mortgage but a valuation is given in

a homebuyers survey so you can upgrade a valuation to a homebuyers survey to save paying for the same thing twice. You should ensure the surveyor is RICS accredited. There are three levels of survey:

(a) Valuation A valuation is often carried out by a Building Society or other Mortgagee to assess the condition and value of the house but it is not a structural survey and in no way guarantees that the house is structurally sound or without defects.

(b) Home Buyers Report This is a standard form of report under guidelines laid down by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors or the Incorporated Society of Valuers and Auctioneers. Such a report provides comments on the condition on the parts of the property which are readily accessible and may include recommendations for further tests or investigations. This sort of survey is normally adequate for any house which is reasonably modern.

(c) Full Structural Survey This is a more detailed examination of the property and its structure and it is advisable to have this sort of survey for older properties or for any property where there is reason to suspect that there might be a structural defect.

At Clapham & Collinge Solicitors we have a dedicated team of expert solicitors and legal executives who can provide you with all of the necessary information, support and legal advice, in relation to your house sale or purchase.

Goldilocks and the Three Bears - Teddy Bears' Picnic

Free Open Air Musical Theatre in North Lodge Park, Cromer on 23 July - show begins at 1pm, running time 1 hour.

Goldilocks, on a trip into the forest, ventures into a seemingly uninhabited house. In the process of making herself feel at home, she turns the place into a gigantic mess! Little does she know that the house belongs to a family of three bears, who will not be too pleased to witness her handiwork. Sound familiar?

Stiles and Drewe's original twist to the well-loved fairy tale features a happy family of porridge-hungry bears, a lumberjack with a heart and his feisty daughter Goldi. This bear-faced, cheeky musical is about the importance of protecting the environment and learning to live with those around you, reminding children not to fiddle with the belongings of others, lest there be consequences to bear.

In a collaboration between Coast Arts, Friends of North Lodge Park and Arts North Norfolk, this production is directed by Arts North Norfolkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own Joseph Ballard, presented by arrangement with Josef Weinberger....if you go down to the Park today...As well as open air theatre, the event will be a Teddy Bears' Picnic â&#x20AC;&#x201C; families are encouraged to bring their picnics, blankets, chairs and teddy bears. There will be teddy bear competitions (such as best dressed bear, name the teddy) and other activities through the afternoon.

52 miles on foot in one day

On Sunday 26 June Sally King and Anita Lusher, self employed personal fitness trainers of North Norfolk Coastal Fitness, achieved the challenge to walk 52 miles in one day.

Their journey began at Little Masssingham on the Peddars Way and continued along the Norfolk Coastal Path, through challenging weather, terrain mud and shingle banks, finishing at the iconic Cromer Pier.

They did this to raise awareness and funds for the local mental health charity, Norwich MIND, which supports people when they feel alone and vulnerable.

Funds are still coming in through the support of local businesses, friends and the just giving page. To date they have raised £1490.

They were joined by Norman Lamb MP, who is very passionate about the mental health services, and his wife at Stiffkey, who then

Sheringham & Cromer Lions Club Sheringham and Cromer Lions Club held their AGM on 28 June.

Lion President Anton Elliott opened the meeting and then handed over to this year's incoming President Arthur Bailey. Other officers elected include Vice President Rodney Crowfoot, Secretary Brian Harris and Treasurer Bill Taylor.

It has been a good fundraising year and the outgoing President was able to give a substantial donation to his year's charity the MS Society, which included money raised by Anton who recently undertook a zip line adventure in Wales, the longest in Europe (a mile in 45 seconds).

accompanied them to Morston.

At Sheringham, clients, friends and the Mayor of Sheringham met them.

At the finishing point, Cromer Pier, they were cheered in by the Cromer Town crier family and friends.

Sally and Anita set out with one goal in mind to support their local mental health charity.

When asked if she thought they could make it, Anita Lusher said “I never doubted for one minute, giving up was never an option, when we had in our minds the huge obstacles that some people have to deal with every day”.

Sally King said “We did this out of respect to everyone experiencing or helping others with mental health issues”.

“We did not do this alone, without the support from so many people we would have failed so a massive thank you to all. “Smile, have faith and remember the power of positivity”

Donations can be made to justgiving.com/northnorfolkcoastalfitness.

Plans continue for more fundraising, including ongoing street collections, manning the car park at Mannington Hall Open Day on 4 September, Cromer and Sheringham Carnivals, Quiz and Chips evenings and Horse Racing nights, as well as talks to interested organisations and giving out Message in a Bottle to people who, for example, are elderly or disabled to make it easier should they use the Emergency Services, who will need a quick way of finding out information about medication, NOK, illnesses etc.

Northrepps World War 1

Early evening on 30 June, Royal British Legion members, residents, and the Headmistress and a teacher from Northrepps Primary School, gathered together at the War Memorial at St Mary's Northrepps, joined by Dixie, a terrier representing all those dogs and horses that also lost their lives, to commemorate The Battle of the Somme.

Jacob Millon played the Bagpipes, and Ted Briggs played the Last Post and Reveille. Northrepps Royal British Legion Chairman Eric Vickers read the Exhortation and Silent Tribute and the wreath was laid by Charity Sadler, a former Cromer Academy pupil, who had visited the War Graves earlier this year. Our Church Warden Janet Payne read the prayers.

A lighted candle and our tribute were in place to greet the dawn on 1 July, 100 years on, remembering the 23 brave young men who left our village, their families and work, never to return, and also all their comrades.

Our World War 1 Exhibition is in the Church, and we are now going to add more information to this over the next few weeks, and if anyone needs to make any enquiries, for information etc, please contact Lorna on 01263 579633.

Dear Margaret,

I would like to complain about the jet skiers and water skiers that use Trimingham beach, which is the one just outside Mundesley.

I have no complaints about them using the beach but I do have a problem with them parking their jeeps and 4x4s on the beach when there are signs saying NO vehicles on the beach.

As I left the beach with my dog at 7pm on Sunday 10 July, one of the jeeps was driven around in circles on the beach with no consideration for others. I commented to someone that they should slow down and he said they have to get off the beach. I said yes so do I!

As I walked up the ramp, I was told to get out of the way. A woman was shouting whose dog is that because it’s going to get run over. There was people with young children still on the beach.

I would like to know why the Council or the police can't stop these people from thinking they are above the law and point out to them that they don't own the beach!

North Walsham and District Branch of Cats Protection

Harvey is still with us at present and we will update you when he finds a new family.

Bre, the other little cat mentioned last time, has now been given a clean bill of health. Although her ear is not back to normal and tends to flop, it is not as disfigured as her other ear. The haematoma was probably the result of her scratching to relieve the itching as she had a really serious problem with ear mites. Thankfully this has now been resolved and she too is waiting for someone to come and offer her a loving new home.

We find that at this time of the year, calls for cats to come into care outweigh the number of cats that we can accommodate and, although we would dearly love to help them all, it is not possible to do this. We do have a waiting list of cats to come into care and we try to give priority to the neediest or those at risk. Most charities are in the same situation, so we usually advise people to contact other charities as well, to see if they can help or if they would be willing to add them to their waiting lists too. If the cat needs to come into care because there is a problem we will suggest ways of alleviating the situation until a No job Too Small place can be found for them.

everyone. However, even if we had more cat pens it would still not mean an end to the problem.

One recent addition to our numbers was a young kitten, now re-homed, that was found in someone’s garden. The Merlin one of the younger ones residence in care person who found him was not a cat owner so did not have any cat food to give him overnight, so gave him some of their dog’s food. Although this is not ideal as dog food does not contain taurine, an essential ingredient in cat food, it was a sensible solution to a short term problem. Dog food should not be given to a cat in place of cat food on a regular basis. Providing a good quality cat food for your cat will ensure it stays healthy and is less likely to have problems with its health.

If you are interested in receiving help to neuter your cat/kitten, please ring 07880 256948 (to see if you are eligible for a voucher). This number is for vouchers only and will not be able to help with any other enquiries. The number also applies for those wishing to take advantage of our special neutering campaign.

If you are looking for a cat or kitten (or have any other queries) please give Stephanie a call on 01692 535858. Alternatively, you can visit www.northwalsham.cats.org.uk/ for a description and photographs of the cats before giving us a call on the above number to find out where any particular cat is being fostered.

The time and dates for the workshops are below:

It has become something of a tradition for our libraries across North Norfolk to join forces with the local arts organisation FALCON, or Facilitating Arts for Children of Norfolk, to put on a series of fun and creative workshops to run alongside the reading challenge to inspire and entertain the children over the course of the Summer Holidays.

After last year’s extremely successful record breaking Doodle Challenge, run by local illustrator Adam Faulconbridge, that culminated in sticky notes being draped around Cromer Pier like bunting we now turn to a more tongue twisting wordy challenge for all those would be Roald Dahl aficionados…

ARE YOu MAD ABOuT MACHInES?

ARE YOu A CARuDYFABBLE WORD InVEnTOR?

Carpets, Flooring and Blinds

CAn YOu HELP FIX ROALD DAHL’S WuRDY GuRDY MACHInE?

It’s a MEGnEFICACKLE CHALLEnGE FOR MALI-WILLS EVERYWHERE!

Help make the machine and come up with inventive new words for the Longest Story written across North Norfolk to keep Fidgeppy Giants happy!

Roald Dahl’s fantastically impicatallated Wurdy Gurdy Machine has broken down. It’s missing parts, falling to pieces and the production of new words and ideas has come to an end.

Children under twelve are invited to come and create missing parts of the machines, inspired by the mechanisms of Heath Robinson and Wallace & Gromit, in libraries throughout North Norfolk. But this is a Wurdy Gurdy Machine so wordalkind helpers are desperately needed to make up for lost time. Help Miss Fluttlewordblurger invent new words, write poems and stories and add to the BFG’s Longest Story. If it is not finished on time the giants will go on a rampage…

The workshops are run by local writer and wordsmith Belona Greenwood and should be the perfect anecdote for children and parents alike looking for something fun and educational to do this up and coming holiday season. We look forward to seeing you there and

Merchants` Place 10th Anniversary celebration Merchants' Place Community Resource and Learning Centre in Cromer is celebrating its 10th Anniversary on 10 August.

The centre was opened in 2006 as part of the Community Economic Regeneration initiative, to offer essential services to the people of Cromer and surrounding district. It acts as a community hub offering a comprehensive signposting service for local services, information on learning and training opportunities, business start-up advice and local training provision including Maths, English and IT. It is also widely used by other agencies such as Citizens Advice Bureau, Norfolk Community Law Service, Voluntary Norfolk and Norfolk Community Learning Service.

Since 2006 it has gone from strength to strength, with over 100,000 people contacting the centre or accessing services over its 10-year lifespan. To celebrate this achievement, an Anniversary Open Day is being held on Wednesday 10 August, when Merchants' Place will be open for visitors from 10am to 2pm.

Guests will be invited to look around the centre's facilities, join staff and clients for refreshments and find out about the services the centre offers. Representatives from organisations which currently use the centre - Voluntary Norfolk, Norfolk Community Law Service, the Matthew Project, Young Peoples Advisors and NHS Wellbeing Service - will be on hand to answer questions and offer advice, so this is the ideal opportunity to find out just what does happen at Merchants` Place.

Norfolk Community Learning Services is launching a range of new courses in September 2016, some of which are free.

Information about each course and how to enrol will be available on the day. Please drop in.

Sheringham Shoal Offshore Windfarm boosts local emergency care

Sheringham Shoal Offshore Wind Farm (SSOWF) has donated a defibrillator to Terrington St John Junior School for use both in the school, and by the local community. It was presented to the staff and pupils on 24 June by Kay Reeve from SSOWF. "We are very conscious of the need for fast, on-the-spot intervention for serious health issues," explains Adam Blake, SSOWF Power Plant Manager. "Health and Safety is of necessity, at the forefront of working practices at the Sheringham Shoal Offshore Wind Farm. Working out at sea is hazardous - accidents or illness that may occur during the journey out to sea to the site, or during the working day on the turbines, have to be dealt with as promptly and professionally as they are on land. Defibrillators constitute part of our basic health care equipment, as we are very aware that their use can provide vital emergency care before paramedics can reach the scene. We are therefore very pleased to be 26

North Walsham Air Cadet Gives First Aid 2110 (North Walsham) Squadron’s newest recruit rendered first aid recently.

Sixteen year old Orson Ayers recently moved into the area and joined the Air Training Corps in April. He was formally enrolled on 23 June by the Squadron Padre, Rev Paul Cubitt. But one of the first things that new cadets do is to get a first aid qualification. Orson passed his Heartstart first aid course at the end of April. All staff and cadets do Heartstart as a minimum first aid qualification, many go on to take more advanced qualifications.

Shortly after completing his Heartstart course Orson witnessed an elderly lady fall over in the Market Place, North Walsham. His recent first aid training gave him the knowledge and confidence to go to her assistance. She had suffered a cut head, but Cromer Times 498 July 23rd 2016

otherwise did not seem badly injured. Orson helped to stem the bleeding and stayed with the lady until an ambulance arrived.

Flying Officer Alan Stevens, officer commanding 2110 Squadron said that he was very proud that a cadet had been able to help in this way. “It is a benefit to the whole community that there are young men and women around who are trained in at least basic first aid and CPR techniques.”

North Walsham Air Cadets parade every Monday and Thursday, at North Walsham Primary School, Manor Road, North Walsham, NR28 9HG from 7pm till 9.30pm and welcomes all young people aged between 12 and 18 years. They are currently recruiting cadets and adult volunteers.

COnSuLTATIOn RE MILL ROAD BuS SHELTER Following a recent inspection of Town Council owned assets and subsequent discussion, members would like to consult with the public as to the future of the bus shelter at the top of Mill Road (opposite the

former Suffield Park Hotel).

At present the shelter is in a very poor condition with damage to the roof, it smells strongly of urine and is rarely seen to be used by people waiting for the bus. It has also been recognised as a hot spot for anti-social behaviour.

The Town Council would therefore like to ask the following questions: Should the shelter be demolished? Yes / No

If your answer to the above question is yes: Subject to budgetary and planning constraints, should the Town Council look into replacing the brick shelter with a modern metal/plastic shelter? Yes / No

Please send your replies in writing to the Town Council Office or by email to deputy@cromer-tc.gov.uk . Deadline for responses is 31 July 2016.

SOCIAL MEDIA & EMAIL The Town Council are continuing to expand on the use of social media to engage with members of the public using twitter and facebook Twitter: @north_lodge Facebook: @CromerTownCouncil

At the time of going to print arrangements were underway to provide council email addresses for all Town Councillors who have access to the internet. Once allocated these will be displayed on the Town Council website.

Cromer Marrams Bowls Club Tales from the Bowling Green ...

…and the green continues to ‘run’ very well and we have seen some better weather and even some days of sun. Scottish Neil and John the Birder scarified the green after Jackie had done the swishing and what a good job they have done. The plan is to do this at least once a month. What is ‘scarifying’ and ‘swishing’? Some of you will know but for those who do not, tune in next week! The NBA League games continue and on a Monday evening we played County Arts ‘B’ and lost 1 – 4, the next game against Cawston was cancelled due to the green being dangerous. A number of players had slipped and fallen the previous two days due to it being so wet. Health and Safety before bowls. The following week we entertained local rivals Suffield Park and had a very successful 4 – 1 win. Captain Neil was very pleased. Good company and enjoyable game all round. The Tuesday evening County

Federation (West) team travelled to Kings Lynn to play Wootton Park on another very wet day. Thankfully the rain

eased by the start of the game and the green played well. The game was close but unfortunately overall the team lost 2 – 7. The home team are one of the stronger opponents in the league, but perhaps we were hoping for a better result as we had won 7 – 2 at home in May. At home the following week Whissonsett were the visitors and the team were delighted to win 8 – 1. Once again due to the strange way the fixtures are organised the NANSA team only had one game to play but this was very successful with an 8 – 0 victory at home against Mundesley. Two friendly games have been played against Watton (Loch Neaton) BC, from the other side of Norfolk, and Aldiss Park BC from Dereham. Jack was unfortunate to be playing with me in this second game so I have to report a wrong bias that ended up nearer the jack on the next rink than on ours! I understand both games were won but I do not have the

Euro 2016 Roundup by our football correspondent Joel Lodge

Euro 2016 finished on 10 July as France vs. Portugal took place in the Stade de France.

It was not the most exciting of finals that anyone has ever seen, however it did give fans some good moments, especially if you’re Portuguese, as Swansea striker Eder scored a wonderful strike in the second half of extra time to ensure that Portugal ruined what would have been a home nation win for France.

Although it was not looking too positive for Portugal in the first half, as star player Ronaldo had to be carried off in tears in the 25th minute, after an injury sustained in a clash with Dmitiri Payet earlier on. It could have been so different for France as substitute Andre Gignac hit the post after he scuffed his shot. However, it was not to be for France in the end, as they could not manage to break down a resilient Portugal team. Euro 2016 overall was an exciting tournament which was enjoyable for the fans of most nations, apart from English fans as

they were knocked out by an Iceland side who were one of the surprise packages of the tournament. Another team that proved to be challenging were Wales, with Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey and Hal Robson-Kanu spearheading the Welsh team to the semi-finals of the tournament, after beating tough opponents such as Belgium. It was one of the greatest nights in recent Welsh sporting history, as they managed to beat them 3-1 after falling behind early on. All-in-all, it was a good tournament and it certainly lived up to my expectations as it produced some brilliant games.
