WHY CHOOSE WHY CHOOSE SILVER & WARD WARD SILVER SOLICITORS in in 2019? 20 19 ? SOLICITORS

“It’s a recurrent misconception that a larger firm is better.”

I am Clare Mayell and I own Silver and Ward Solicitors in Sheringham. I am an extremely competent and experienced solicitor. I appreciate that any time of the year can be a difficult time fo or many people to resolve legal issues of worry and concern, for example, making a will or Lasting Power of Attorney. As I have worked for 2 larger local firms I know what clients want and expect. My charges are significantly less than other solicitors in North Norfolk or Norwich and I provide 22 years of expertise and exceptional service. I pride myself in being one of the only solicitors who offffers a FREE FIRST APPOINTMENT, so clients can come in and obtain some initial advice and discuss costs and then make an informed decision. At a larger firm you just pay more. When a client rings or walks through the door they invariably get to speak to me as this personal and direct approach is important to my clients and I. I ensure complete confidentiality is an absolute priority. I advise new clients to “shop around” as I know that my charges are significantly less than other solicitors but I can offer the same expertise, if not better. I have and can act for clients across Norrffolk and the Country as we now have the use of Skype, emails etc. so it enables me to act for clients further afield. The reason that clients, near and far, instruct Silver and Ward is because of my expertise, exceptional service and competitive costs.

“I would say to any potential client with a legal issue or worry in 2019 to come and meet me face to face for a FREE FIRST APPOINTMENT, as you have nothing to lose but all to gain.

Home visits can be arranged or appointments outside of office hours including Saturdays. 0 1263 8 23465 or email clare@silverandward.co.uk 01263 823465

CROMER FLOWER CLUB Our demonstrator this month was Jenni Baker and her subject ‘Sticks and Stuff’.

Her first design was in a willow basket fashioned out of twigs, and filled with skimmia, bay, conifer and saponaria, her flowers were apricot stocks and avantique roses in cream tinged with red, as well as rosemary and gerberas. While filling the basket she told us how she was risking her house by leaving four month old puppy with her older dog and a visit by someone to let them out mid-afternoon!

The next arrangement was in a metal stand with greenery hiding the oasis and completed with orange lilies, mario roses, salmon gerberas and blue delphiniums.

Her third design was in a rather grand statue with rubus, tricola, spruce to both sides. The centre was filled with lisianthus, white statice, a few white carnations. Lovely bridal wreath and arum italicum.

The next arrangement was in a plump wooden

pot found in her new shed which, as is the way with sheds, is now completely full. The pot was adorned with aspidistra leaves, contorted hazel, box, chrysanthemums, statice and protea.

After we were refreshed with tea and biscuits we admired her arrangement in a metal trough which was greened with box, laurel and choisya. Pink aqua roses, antique carnations. purple gerberas and spray chrysanthemums made a unusual design. Jenni is an unusual person as for her birthday she was given a Massey Ferguson tractor which she uses for charity work, well done her!

pink carnations anthuriums and ivy leaves.

The vote of thanks was given by Anne Goozee. The best in show competition winner was Jenny Pawson. She ‘Sprung into Spring with a pretty arrangement of pussy willow, mascara, grape hyacinth, tulips and dog tooth lily.

Our next meeting is at Northrepps Country Hotel at 11am on 15 May when the demonstrator will be Gill McGregor who is brilliant. Tickets are available by phoning 01263 513408.

Her last design was on a metal grid with dried palm leaves, green palm leaves, apricot stocks, salmon

North Walsham and District Branch of Cats Protection

Poppy went back to the vets once she had finished the course of antibiotics she was taking and because the head tilt had not gone completely, she has another course of treatment and will be going back once this is completed. She is a very gentle little cat and enjoys watching the world pass by her pen.

When cats and kittens leave us for their new homes, we always advise their new family what type of food they have been eating and the type of cat litter they are used to. We always suggest they initially continue to use the same food as any change can upset their digestive system and can lead to the cat having diarrhoea. It is always better to introduce these changes gradually to avoid upsets. Similarly, with cat litter, they will have been used to either the clay lump or wood chip (depending on which fosterer they are with) and together with all the changes they experience when going to a new home, may not use the litter tray if the contents are unfamiliar to them. Again, introducing the litter you wish to use in future gradually, will make life easier for both you and your new family member.

Under the Animal Welfare Act all pet owners have a duty of care to provide their pets with a suitable environment and diet where they can behave normally and also ensure they are protected from pain, suffering injury and disease. Such was not the case for one little stray we took in recently. Quinsy was in a dreadful state, very underweight and with matted fur. During the two days he was with us his condition deteriorated and he was rushed to the vets where sadly he had to be put to sleep as it was believed he was a victim of FELV. His fosterer was so concerned she did feel he could have died before actually seeing the vet. Obviously, his owners had not shown a duty of care for him and had they been identified, we would have referred this to the RSPCA who would have probably prosecuted them. This poor little cat did not

deserve such irresponsible owners and they certainly should not be owning any animals.

If you are interested in receiving help Olga is a timid young cat who will need lots of to neuter your time to settle in her new home 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.

We are now on Facebook. You can find us under Cats Protection North Walsham.

Hedgehog Haven

Stan (pictured) is the newest arrival.

Out during the day, he was found by a dog walker just around the corner from where I live so his finder ran to find me.

He's a small hog just 270grms. Another one who has probably been struggling through the winter, he is slowly gaining weight, but will be quite some time before he is big enough to release.

To coincide with Hedgehog Awareness week, North Walsham Garden Centre are having a Hedgehog Day on Saturday 11 May between 10am and 3pm. Hodomodes Hedgehog Support will be there with an all things hedgehog stall, I will be in attendance with information leaflets, a tombola and, all being well, a hedgehog.

UPPER SHERINGHAM BELLS WILL BE RINGING OUT AGAIN SOON!

We are already training new bellringers at nearby St Andrew’s in Holt who will also help with ringing the bells at All Saints Upper Sheringham – but we are always keen to teach new people so if you ever fancied trying your hand at this ancient art get in touch! It’s nothing like you see on the television – you do not fly through the air, you do not need to be strong, you do not need to be musical or mathematical – you just need a sense of rhythm and a sense of humour!

We are delighted to report that the appeal is progressing so well that, if all goes to plan, we will be ringing the bells in time for Remembrance this year, and certainly by Christmas. Remember to listen out for us!

We still need to raise the last bit of the money – please do consider helping us with this last push – what better legacy than to be able to say “I helped those bells ring out again”.

As we start dismantling the fixtures and fittings prior to the bells being taken to the bell works in Dorset, we will have a few items we could sell as mementoes of this project – we will have some clappers, chiming hammers, pulley blocks and an odd selection of handbells in varying conditions. Get in touch if you would like more information or would like to make an offer for anything or come and have a look at what we have. We won’t charge extra for the rust and dust!! The photo shows an example of a clapper (from a different church, we haven’t removed ours yet) and the actual handbells and pulley blocks and other random items that we are offering.

Another exciting bit of news is that we have been accepted into the Tesco ‘Bags of Help’ scheme in their stores in Sheringham and Mundesley– throughout May and June we will be one of their chosen charities so please remember to pick up your blue token at the till and vote for us!

How to donate: If you would like to donate towards giving our 6 bells their voices back please send your donation to Sue Morton, 4 Linden Grove, Sheringham, NR26 8PD. Cheques payable to “Upper Sheringham PCC”.

If you are able to gift aid your donation, please ask me for a gift aid form – 01263 826078 or suejmorton@gmail.com.

A big thank you to those who have donated so far – we couldn’t do it without you!

Breaking the impasse... resolving conflict using mediation techniques

Amanda Nudds, Solicitor & Mediator, Hayes + Storr Solicitors

The seemingly interminable failure of MPs to agree Britain’s withdrawal agreement from the EU is typical of many intractable disputes. At some point in our lives, most of us will find ourselves at odds with someone over something. Each person will have their own ideas about what’s right (usually based on what’s most important to them) but that can result in both parties being totally unable to agree an outcome – and a stalemate ensues.

Breaking that impasse can seem difficult, if not impossible. And that’s where mediation comes in. A form of dispute resolution used to prevent (or conclude) court proceedings. Here are ten useful techniques used in mediation to help find a settlement:

1. PARTICIPATION It’s important that both parties are willing to engage in the process, can put forward proposals as well as consider any proposals received.

2. EVIDENCE Both parties must be upfront and make available all key documentary evidence – so each side can understand the other’s position.

3. STATE YOUR POSITION Make your position clear at the outset, as it may be that one party has misinterpreted the other’s position. Explain what you believe to be right and what you hope to achieve.

4. WORK TOWARDS A SETTLEMENT Initially, each party’s aim will be to win, but it’s important to realise that resolution isn’t going to be a ‘win’ for one and a ‘loss’ for another – it will be a compromise that enables both parties to move on.

5. BE RESPECTFUL Whatever your feelings, it’s important to treat the other party with respect. Being insulting only creates more barriers and makes it more difficult for any resolution to be achieved.

6. BE PERSUASIVE Highlight the merits of your position so the other party can see that their point of view may not be as strong as they

originally believed. This can also bring the other party’s attention to the mutual benefits of a deal.

7. INTERESTS Identifying the other party’s interests can be difficult – but once you’ve asked questions and gleaned more information on what they want to achieve, you’ll have a much better understanding of what can be done.

8. BRAINSTORMING Neither party is going to leave with a settlement that includes everything they want. Explore and identify options which will satisfy both parties.

9. EMOTION Although all conflict gives rise to anger and frustration, it’s important to keep your emotions in check so you are able to think clearly and practically.

10. PATIENCE A fully-informed overview can take time before a final settlement is reached, so try and remain patient – it will pay off eventually!

If you’re currently locked in a dispute and would like to find a way out, call Hayes + Storr on 01328 863231 and ask to speak to Amanda Nudds. If you require advice on any other legal matter call 01263 825959 or email law@hayes-storr.com.

On Friday 3 May 1929 Cromer Urban District Council sub-committee chairman G A Rounce called the third meeting of the North Lodge Committee to order with important decisions to be made.

The previous September, the Council had bought the North Lodge estate at auction for £5,500 to use the building as new offices and develop the surrounding estate as a park, preferably one that paid its way from the start to help repay the loan for the purchase.

Putting greens were hastily prepared, two ‘putting outfits’ and 30 seven-foot benches were bought at 37/- each, and it was resolved “the Park be open to the Public on Saturday 18th May from 9am until sunset”. The minutes of the 3 May meeting also record

that “the question of arranging for an Official opening of the Park was deferred to a later date”. Given the committee would not meet again until 28 May – 10 days after North Lodge Park opened – and the absence of any mention in the weekly Journal, it seems the park just opened, with no ceremony much less fanfare or razzmatazz.

And the plan paid off. Putting receipts for the first Whitsun week (18-26 May) were £11 5s 6d, comparing favourably with the council’s other revenue streams: for nearly the whole of the month (1-28 May) Motor Park receipts were £19 1 6d and from public conveniences £19 17 4d. By the end of its first successful 1929 season, North Lodge Park putting had taken £278 7s 6d,

with 40% of the receipts in August. As the minutes of October’s Parks Committee recorded:

“The Chairman thought that what they had heard as to the North Lodge receipts pointed to the wisdom of the Council in obtaining the property, and also the normal course of development pursued. He thought that when nearly £300 was obtained it was an encouragement to the Council to go forward on present lines (hear, hear)”

The 90th anniversary of the opening of North Lodge Park will be celebrated in the Park on Saturday 18 May during this year’s Gardening Festival, part of the Crab & Lobster Festival.

A Gentleman

We know a lovely gentleman who’s old and very frail. He’s still got all his marbles, tho’ his sight’s begun to fail. He’s courteous and gentle with amazing memories Of a childhood long ago, when times were hard, and he’s Able to recall the way things were before the war, When people were much poorer, but somehow, less was more! He recalls a childhood, where strict obedience And respect were paramount, rebellions rare events. Courtesy to everyone, he would always greet Ladies with his ‘titfer’ raised and to others he would meet. A gent right to his fingertips, his speech never profane, No blasphemy would pass his lips, nor would he complain. Sadly, when he passes, a lot else will pass, too, Like courtesy, kindness, wisdom and compassion - sad but true. All these things are building blocks on which societies grow, So we must teach our children this, before these old gents go! Frances Wraight

Row, Row, Row your Boat

In December 2020 a trio of intrepid rowers will embark on the longest and toughest row of their lives (to date).

They are Sandra Squire, Helen Hogan and Kate Palmer, all members of the Kings Lynn Coastal Rowing Club who will be taking part in the Talisker Atlantic Challenge www.taliskerwhiskyatlanticchallenge.com

In order to take part in this mammoth event a serious amount of training will be necessary. To this end the trio ably assisted by Carol Noding, Tim Hogan, Bob Panrucker, Karen Nicklin and photographer Pete Jousiffe set out on Saturday 20 April, in their St Ayles Skiff, the ‘Lynn Rewet’ to row from Kings Lynn and visit all the lifeboat stations along the coast as far as Great Yarmouth, presenting Easter Eggs to all the stations along the way.

As you will appreciate, all coastal rowing is governed by the winds and the tides and timing

is therefore of the essence. The team was seriously hampered at the outset by a 45 minute delay with the arrival into The Great Ouse of a container ship. This put their timing all awry which meant that they arrived at Old Hunstanton later than planned and as the tide was on the turn. As they departed from Old Hunstanton they were met with the incoming tide and an easterly wind of about 15- 20 knots and, as they were not making any headway, it was decreed that, with the wind being from that quarter for the proposed duration of the row over the Easter weekend, that it would not be possible to complete the row in the allotted time.

However, the KLCRC members were determined not to disappoint the RNLI stations they had planned to visit and took it upon themselves to journey by road to all the Lifeboat Stations between Hunstanton and Great Yarmouth to deliver their Easter wishes and chocolates aplenty.

DJ bows out with one final performance

The crew were obviously very disappointed not

A DJ who survived a near death experience bowed out with one final performance in Cromer. London DJ Madhatter AKA Paul Wellings, who used to write for the NME and played at Ibiza Superclubs like Pacha and Ministry Of Sound, played a SKA event to 100 people at Cromer Social Club with a SKA night in a final farewell after suffering a bad fall two months ago.

We at Sheringham RNLI are very grateful for their best wishes and gifts and wish them well in their endeavours to row across the Atlantic Ocean in December next year.

What has come from this weekend, is a deeper understanding of the work each station undertakes, how invaluable it is and how much support it requires to keep those stations open. We are completely in awe of the fabulous lifeboat crews at all of the stations and are now working on plans to get them involved with some rows around the coast.”

He said “I wanted to repay the loyalty of Cromer Social Club and deliver the gig I had to cancel with them after my accident. I've had a great DJ career and achieved all I wanted to achieve but for health reasons I had to say enough was enough and hang up my headphones. But it's been one nutty ride with some seriously heavy rhythms”.

We have spent a great deal of time talking to the crews, learning about their stations and the work they do and of course, delivering Easter Eggs to them!

Artists get ready for Open Studios and Art Exhibition Preparations are well underway for the annual open studios event at barrington Farm day service centre at walcott.

Barry Skinner, 44, attends the centre’s supported Art Barn studio every week and is looking forward to welcoming visitors to the space and showing his work. “I’m happy to exhibit my work. I like to draw scenery and famous faces like Toyah and Bjork. I have autism. I taught myself how to draw and bring my own ideas. People should come here for Open Studios – it will do you the world of good and you might find something really interesting!”

Staff member Sarah Ballard says “Open Studios is a fantastic opportunity for local people to visit to this unique art centre. There are very few places like it in the UK. We don’t expect visitors to buy anything (though it’s great if they do!) – it is more about people seeing how each individual makes their art in this shared space and engaging with the artists. Barry is one of 30 artists here who work hard all year but also face challenges in exhibiting their work. Open Studios also allows us to create an accessible exhibition outside of a traditional gallery environment and gives everyone an equal platform to show their work and celebrate their achievements. Please don’t miss your chance to come and support these brilliant artists – everyone is welcome.”

The Art Barn studio at Barrington Farm will be open 10am - 5pm every day from Tuesday 28 May until Sunday 9 June. It is No 092 in the brochure. Norfolk & Norwich Open Studios, run by the N&N Festival is one of the largest schemes in the country with over 450 artists taking part.

Priscilla Bacon Hospice charity shop in North Walsham celebrates 1st birthday

One of the six charity shops set up in Norfolk, to help fund the building of the new Priscilla Bacon Hospice has just celebrated its first year of trading.

to build the new hospice.

Shop Manager Sarah Andrews said "The shop has received so many compliments on its smart appearance and the quality of stock donated by our many supporters. The shop includes two rooms of ladies’, men’s and children’s Jenny (Volunteer) fashion, as well as a dedicated vintage area, and two rooms filled with electricals, household goods and small furniture.”

Six Priscilla Bacon Hospice charity shops, located in North Walsham, Aylsham, Stalham, Sheringham, Drayton and Taverham, were established to help underpin the fundraising operation and ensure that 93 pence in every pound raised is committed to the campaign

The shops also raise awareness of the charity and act as local hubs to extend support from the wider community.

Priscilla Bacon Hospice is a new charity which has recently launched a campaign to raise £12.5 million to build a new hospice with 24 inpatient beds and replace Priscilla Bacon Lodge, the existing specialist hospice facility in Norwich.

Jessica (Volunteer), Caroline (Deputy Manager), Sarah (Manager), Marjorie, Joy, and Clare (Volunteers)

Priscilla Bacon Lodge was built 40 years ago, following a county-wide fundraising appeal and has provided a very high standard of specialist palliative care. Despite its achievements, it is now inadequate both in scale and configuration, as the population of Norfolk has grown by approximately 220,000 in this time, multiplying demand, and in its current location it cannot be extended.

The new hospice will be built adjacent to the Norfolk & Norwich Hospital and will have improved day care and outpatients’ facilities, as well as a coordination centre for the ‘Hospice at Home’ team, who deliver end-of-life care in the community.

North Walsham shop staff, volunteers and shoppers celebrated the birthday with cake. Bryan Saunders, Head of Retail said "We are so grateful to the residents of North Walsham for their support over the year. Our staff and volunteers love meeting and talking to the shoppers and donors of stock. If you would like to support the shop, donations of quality goods can be made directly to the shop at 15 Market Place, and we are always pleased to hear from new volunteers to join the team.”

How to restore a youthful jawline?

Coltishall Cosmetic Clinic is fully equipped to help you achieve a tighter jawline and neck.

Sagging jawline is a common concern for many men and women. They do not want major surgery but are looking for some tightening and lifting to make their jawline more defined.

Thanks to modern technology we are able to achieve this in a number of different ways. We can achieve a very pleasing profile with our treatments.

Thanks to modern technology, our treatments, sun-protection and awareness; we find people are maintaining their youthful looks for longer. Our journey begins with a consultation and assessment to determine causes of your particular concern so that a customized treatment plan can be devised. We can usually offer you a choice. Our treatment recommendation may include one or more of the following:

because it requires placing fairly substantial amounts of filler on underlying bone while avoiding the blood vessels. This is a challenging technique that can produce beautiful results.

More advanced options We do offer a variety of minimally invasive options such as laser facelift, one stitch facelift or full face and neck lifts under local anaesthesia so we can offer these if you have a significant amount of lose skin and feel surgery is your only option. give us a call on 01603 736487 or log on to the website www.coltishallclinic.co.uk to book your appointment and start your journey towards a tighter jawline and neck.

radiofrequency skin tightening This device can tighten the skin without any pain or discomfort and requires no preparation with numbing creams. It takes about 40-45 minutes to treat the whole face. Patients love this treatment because they are comfortable without pain medication or numbing creams. This treatment is great for firming up your jawline if you do not have a lot of lose skin. We do have some special offers on this great treatment for you.

Fractional Co2 laser resurfacing Fractional Skin Resurfacing is the only method, which creates new skin. This results in a decrease in sunspots, fine lines, wrinkles and acne scarring and a fresher, more youthful skin tone and texture. The Fractional approach stimulates quick healing, while leaving your skin’s surface intact, with no lasting redness.

Chin and jawline are difficult to inject so you need an experienced doctor to do these and not someone who injects fillers ‘on the side’. When injecting fillers it is important to stay away from the important structures such as nerves and blood vessels. So a deep understanding of anatomy is essential.

When the jaw angle gets blurred, it makes a huge difference in how the person is perceived. We can inject fillers to contour the jawline, angle of the jaw and chin. Botulinum toxin injections remain popular for this area as in Nefertiti lift. As we age, we start to lose a little chin projection. This can be restored using fillers. This approach differs drastically from simply filling lines

A vibrant, welcoming school “where my child can thrive and do well” Ofsted praises Norfolk primary school’s ‘inquisitive learners’ and ‘strong nurturing and caring culture’

themselves into a variety of tree shapes, while pupils involved in a mathematical investigation estimated measurements with liquids.”

Aldborough Primary School in North Norfolk has just had an Ofsted inspection during which it was praised for its standards of teaching and the rich curriculum it encourages. The inspection reported that the school “continues to be good,” praising the changes that had been made to maintain and improve its high standards.

Ofsted described the school as ‘vibrant’, with a ‘strong nurturing and caring culture,’ adding that all teaching staff know every pupil very well and concentrate on ensuring that their individual academic, social and emotional needs are met. “Consequently, pupils make good progress,” the inspector said, adding that one parent had commented, “This is a school where my child can thrive and do well.”

Ofsted noted what it called the school’s ‘wonderful woodland setting,’ praising the way the school is ‘determined to make the most of the opportunities this opens up for pupils.’ The inspector added, “Outdoor learning is encouraged. I saw learning outside where, in a drama session, pupils turned

The inspector praised the classrooms’ ‘purposeful atmosphere’, where ‘pupils are inquisitive learners.’ The school is committed to providing a rich curriculum, and the inspector found pupils spoke ‘enthusiastically’ about the wide range of learning different opportunities provided, including sport, music, languages, art and drama. “They also told me about the ‘science, art and writing week’,” said the inspector. “It gave them the opportunity to learn about the sea, through science-based exploration recorded in art and writing.”

Reading has been a strength of the school for

some time. In 2016 it received a letter from the then Minister of State for School Standards, Rt Hon Nick Gibb MP, congratulating staff and pupils on their standard of reading, which put them in the top 1% of schools nationally. The Ofsted report speaks of the pupils’ love of reading and their ability to hold well-developed discussions about areas such as characterisation and genre.

“Obviously we are delighted by the great things Ofsted has to say about our school,” says Alison Read, Head Teacher. “We are working collaboratively to implement the report’s recommendations, enhancing the learning opportunities already provided by our talented team.

“The success of a school like Aldborough is all about community and team spirit – I’m so delighted that the Ofsted report highlights the hard work of pupils and staff and the fantastic support we receive from parents, governors, and the wider community.”

anyone interested in finding out more should call the office (during school hours) on 01263 761264 or email office@aldborough.norfolk.sch.uk. the school’s website is at www.aldborough.norfolk.sch.uk

Cromer WI

Readers Write ...

We held our April meeting in the Cottage Louden Road with 40 members and two visitors attending. Our speaker for the afternoon was Maria Pennington whose talk was called ‘Pearls are my Passion’ and as the talk progressed you could tell they are defiantly Maria’s passion!

All letters must be supplied with name and full address (full address will not be published). Anonymous letters will not be published. Comments, views and opinions in readers letters are not necessarily shared by the editors or the publisher and we reserve the right to edit or not publish.

Dear Margaret,

Until the start of the 20th Century the only way of collecting pearls was by divers weighted down with heavy rocks and a peg on their nose harvesting them from the sea bed. This was very dangerous as the divers had to hold their breath while under water. Since the beginning of the 20th Century most pearls are now cultured by oyster farmers either in salt or fresh water under controlled conditions.

I work for a charity (Change, Grow, Live) which delivers the Norfolk Independent Visitors Service and we are desperate to recruit committed and passionate volunteers who would like to spend a day a month with a young person in care.

The children and young people we work with have suffered abuse, neglect and often both; they often mistrust adults and need positive role models to show them that relationships can be trusting, healthy and positive.

Visitors always welcome at our meetings.

Overstrand Evening WI

The role of an Independent Visitor can be immensely rewarding and fun - taking a child or teenager out once a month to have fun together by engaging in community activities or visiting places of interest.

The April meeting was well attended and a warm welcome was given to two potential new members. That welcome was extended to Keri Lowe, textile artist/designer who was our speaker and demonstrator for the evening.

Minimum age for volunteer applicants is 21 and minimum commitment is for 2 years, once a month. Full training and support is provided, plus reimbursement of reasonable expenses.

Keri described and showed us an assortment of her felt work which was a revelation. We hope she will return for a workshop.

Federation news was then passed on to members. Four members attended the Federation annual meeting - a special centenary programme was given to all that attended. This was a very enjoyable day rounded off by writer, broadcaster and poet Pam Ayres. It was decided to bake 100 cakes/rock cakes to be handed out at the Overstrand Rock Stock Concert as part of our Federations centenary. Two outings are being considered for the summer - one to Horning for the Mississippi boat trip and the other to Somerlayton Hall near Lowestoft.

For more information you can visit our website www.changegrowlive. org/vacancy/volunteer-independent-visitor-norfolk-independentvisitors-cgl3244 or email norfolkiv@cgl.org.uk

Steph Walsingham Norfolk Programme Manager Norfolk Independent Visitors and Norfolk SMS Mentoring

On a more serious note, a petition was signed by members protesting about the change to the bus stop in Overstrand Village High Street due to be moved to the main Cromer - Mundesley Road. Watch this space!

Short mat semi-finalists and winner

In the quiz final the blue team of Julie, Roger O and Neil P took an early lead and led at the break by 36 to 27. However, the break worked well for the red team of Edna, Sally and Jean N who came storming back but just couldn’t do it as the blue team held out for a 58-56 victory. Thank you to all who competed over the winter and supported the final and special thanks to John B, question master extraordinaire.

With the winter well and truly over (!) the short mat presentations were made to Bob A and Jan

at an afternoon event.

The first game, a ‘spoon drive’ at the club, was won by Jane with Les second. Not doing so well (obviously got a bad draw!) were Gay and Keith M. But it’s best not to peak too early! For the first friendly of the season we visited West Runton BC but found the home conditions a bit of a disadvantage to lose quite convincingly by 5 rinks to 1, 112-79. The winning rink for Marrams was led by George with Jackie and Neil P for an 18-11 victory.
