Mystery supporter donates postcards from the past Lifesavers at the RNLI in Sheringham were perplexed after a to Sheringham RNLI

mystery person donated a collection of exquisite silk postcards dating back to the early 1900s.

The treasure trove of embroidered postcards – believed to have been handmade before the First World War – were left at the town’s RNLI shop, leaving lifeboat fundraisers delighted, if somewhat bemused.

The donor left no name or contact details, only a carrier bag containing more than 100 postcards of differing designs. They were handed to volunteers at the shop with instructions to auction them and donate the profits to the charity that saves lives at sea.

New Puzzle Page & Competition inside this issue

Embroidered silk postcards were a common souvenir of the First World War and were popular with British soldiers who often sent them home. They were seldom sent through the post because they were too fragile, and many bear no message or postal markings because they were usually sent with an accompanying letter. Continued on page 4...

Mystery supporter donates postcards from the past to Sheringham RNLI Freewheel Fabrications Ltd, Unit 6 Cornish Way, North Walsham, NR28 0AW

Continued from front cover... Brian Farrow, Lifeboat Operations manager at Sheringham RNLI, said the gesture has left the lifeboat community scratching their heads. “I was upstairs in a meeting when our volunteer shop manager, Anne Little, came in with a carrier bag. It was only when the two of us reached inside and pulled out a handful of the postcards did we realise quite what they were.

‘They are absolutely beautiful. The care and skill that went into making them is obvious – we felt like we were holding a real piece of British history. But we have no idea where they came from or who they belonged to.’

Production of embroidered silk postcards peaked during 1914-18 war, as

the format proved especially popular with British soldiers. The hand-embroidery is thought to have been carried out in domestic houses as ‘out-work’ by civilians in France and Belgium, and in the UK by Belgian refugees.

Among the collection donated to Sheringham RNLI are postcards bearing Christmas greetings, a woman in traditional Portuguese dress, and a star made up of different Allied nations flags, which is dated 25 December 1916.

The RNLI now plans to make enquiries with auction houses to see how much the postcards might be worth. A popular internet auction website shows similar items ranging from a few pence each up to around £30 for some items.

‘But be they worth pennies or pounds, the identity of the donor remains a mystery to us. We would like to express our thanks and gratitude to whoever donated them. Thank you so much for thinking of us and for giving us such a precious collection.’

Anne Little, Sheringham RNLI shop manager, said ‘From the research I have done I understand postcards were often sent home A CONCERT

by soldiers who, tragically, never returned from the war. In that sense the postcards were probably very precious to some individuals, which makes it all the more poignant that they were given to us. Obviously the owner wanted them to do some good and help to save lives at sea.

Battle of the Clubs

A battle took place between representatives of three Norfolk clubs on 16 March. Wymondham Photographic Society and Brancaster Camera Club were entertained by, and did battle with, North Norfolk Photographic Society.

The 'umpire' was a well-known East Anglian Photo judge, Alan Sarsby, who says “I have been a keen photographer since my teenage years. I now have grey hair — you can do the arithmetic yourself”. He is a multi-talented man - as well as teaching photography, he also runs a business skills course, publishes books about business and is a member of two camera clubs.

The contest was in two parts. First, printed images were presented, eight from each club and then projected digital images – again eight each.

After the 24 prints had been judged (a quarter of them receiving 10 out of 10 marks) the Brancaster club were leading by half a mark from both the other clubs. This all changed after the projected images, when Wymondham did best and ended up overall winners by 143.5 over North Norfolk PS with 142 and Brancaster with 68.5. Again, six of the 24 got top marks - very high quality photography by all three clubs.

Meetings of the North Norfolk Photographic Society are held on the first and third Wednesdays each month from 7.30pm in Holt Community Centre. For further details please contact the club Secretary, Judith Wells at secretary.nnps@gmail.com or visit the club website at www.nnphotosoc.org/.

KELLING PROBUS CLUB

Kelling Probus Club held its AGM on 17 March at the Dales Hotel Upper Sheringham, Twenty three members attended.

After a tasty lunch and good fellowship, the Club held its Annual General Meeting.

Mike Bennet our Chairman welcomed members to the AGM and called upon Tony O'Shea, the Club Treasurer to give his report.

Tony reported that the club was financially sound and that the year had seen the balance in hand grow a little. He proposed that the annual sub should be reduced to £15and the joining fee to £10. The motion was carried unanimously.

Ken Murray then gave his Secretary's report, He stated that it had been a year of stability and, despite losing three members, the Club remained with a membership of 28 and attendance at lunches was always 20+. Ken felt the reason for this was the good standard of lunches and a real good team of guest speakers in the past year. He thanked the Hotel staff for all their service and help.

Chairman Mike then thanked all the members and officers for a really enjoyable year and stated that he felt the Club was very well organized and healthy. He then handed over the Chairman’s chain to Dave Vickery for the year 2016/17.

The following will be club committee for the next year: • Chairman Dave Vickery • Past Chairman Clive Mitchell • Vice Chair Ken Murray • Treasurer Tony O'Shea • Hon Sec Andrew Hyatt • Hon Auditor Rohan Fennel • Press officer John Whittington • Programme sec. Mike Clayton • Lunch arranger John Dunsire • Photographer Bill Day

It was announced that the Club would be hosting a joint meeting with Cromer & Sheringham and Holt Clubs in the summer to celebrate their 30th birthday. If you would like to join please contact John Whittington on 01263 820333. Sheringham Independent 437

Chocolate Fondant Desserts

• 1 egg yolk • 2 tbs brown sugar • 1 1/2 tbs cocoa, plus extra for dusting

By the time you read this our new Orangery will be open and bracing itself for a deluge of guests enjoying our rather wonderful Afternoon Teas, drinks before a lovely dinner and Pimms on the lawns throughout the summer. The new room will be a great addition to the Grove and we look forward to showing you around.

This chocolate fondant dessert is quickly becoming a firm favourite on the Spring à la carte and has the benefit of being completely gluten free too. It’s nice and indulgent for all of those who deserve a rich, chocolatey pudding – go on, treat yourself!

Ingredients • 50g butter, plus extra for greasing • 50g 70% cocoa chocolate, roughly chopped • 1 large egg

Instructions 1. Brush melted butter inside two dariole moulds. Pop in the fridge and, after a while, remove and brush with melted butter again. Dust with cocoa, turning the moulds to ensure the moulds are well coated. 2. Melt the chocolate and butter together in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Stir gently to combine well into a dark silky liquid and set aside to cool a little. 3. Beat the egg, egg yolk and sugar together for at least five minutes, until the mixture is thick and moussey, and leaves a little trail before slowly sinking back into the rest of the mixture. 4. Carefully fold in the melted chocolate and butter. Sift the cocoa over the top and fold in carefully. 5. Divide the mixture between the prepared moulds and leave in the fridge for up to 6

Fairtrade for Sheringham

As we have been a Fairtrade Town for nearly two years the Fairtrade Foundation will require an update of our progress in the summer. With this in mind we will be asking all the shops, businesses, groups, schools and Churches whether they are selling or using Fairtrade products. You were very helpful when we did this in 2013/14, and we look forward to seeing you in the next week or two.

Many thanks,The Fairtrade for Sheringham Group.

Saucepan versus Soupmaker

A ‘Saucepan versus Soupmaker’ competition will be one of the highlights of an upcoming Soup and Pudding evening in Aylsham Town Hall on 23 April at 7.30pm. Organised by Slow Food Aylsham, the event will invite guests to choose between soup made in the traditional way and soup made in a ‘newfangled’ machine. Local chef Derrol Waller will be on hand with his saucepan while Slow Food’s Jill Willis will tend the machine.

Enough soup will be produced for all guests to have a bowl full, together with roll and butter. A selection of dessert puddings will follow, made by Slow Food Aylsham members, and accompanied by a choice of custard or cream. This is certainly an event when the diet is best left at home!

Chair of Slow Food Aylsham, Mo Anderson-Dungar, says she is really looking forward to the event, which A selection of delicious puddings will mirror one held seven years ago. made by Slow Food Aylsham “Back in 2009,� she says, “Slow Food held a very similar event which members will be served attracted a large audience and saw our members come up with a fabulous selection of puddings.

Dear Margaret,

On 21 April Her Majesty the Queen celebrates her 90th Birthday. To mark this occasion, at 7.45pm at The Leas in Sheringham, there will be a short official ceremony to unveil a beacon. This will, subject to suitable weather conditions, then be lit to form part of a national celebration as proposed by Pageantmaster Bruno Peek. On 23 April, we will be holding our St George's Day Concert at St Peters Parish Church in Sheringham. This commences at 7.30pm. Everyone is cordially invited to join us at either or both of these events. Yours sincerely David Gooch Mayor of Sheringham

Dear Margaret,

My Good Samaritan appeared on the cold, blustery morning of Saturday 19 March. I was collecting outside the old Post Office for the Marie Curie nurses. A lady stopped to give a donation and asked if I was cold. ‘Only my hands – I forgot to bring my gloves!’ Moments later this kind, unknown lady reappeared bearing a pair of heavy, woollen mittens. She had gone straight to the nearest charity shop and bought me a pair of brand new hand knitted mittens. A Godsend! I wish I had asked her name. But this was a kindness always to be remembered. Thank you so much, my Samaritan. Yours sincerely Maggie Gould

Dear Margaret,

Sheringham in Bloom is grateful to have been the recipient of a generous donation of £1,000.

The Sheringham Social Club, previously known as the Exservicemen and Sportsman’s Club, ceased operation in 2012 and have kindly donated their residual balance to various charities, mainly in Sheringham.

Sheringham in Bloom committee is very grateful for this donation and plan to use it to replace the damaged planters at the town signs on Weybourne and Holt Roads. A sign acknowledging this funding will be put on the planters.

We are at the time of year when we approach all our sponsors and our letters will be going out very shortly. Sponsorship money is used solely to provide a good display of flowers in our planters throughout the year and we hope this helps to make Sheringham a truly attractive town. If anyone is interested in sponsoring one of our displays they can start from a little as £25, and if you would rather just make a small donation this would also be gratefully received.

Thank you to everyone who supports us and we hope the coming summer will be a colourful one.

G.I.F.T.s Annual Talent Show

On Sunday 13 March there was a rapturous and joyous sound coming from a tiny corner of Cremer Street in Sheringham as Age Concern North Norfolk and the Good Intentions Fundraising Team (G.I.F.T) celebrated local talent. The Age Concern day centre was transformed into a mini theatre for the day as budding performing talent that spanned the generations came together to put on a show of song and dance.

There was stunning vocalists, dance troupes, from the highly regarded Marlene’s School of Dance and a family of talented musical performers; they were the MSD Dancers, Pete Phillips, Brian Brown and the Volko Trio respectively, amongst others. They all contributed immensely to a wonderful and memorable atmosphere and morning of entertainment. It was all part of the annual G.I.F.T. Talent show where local performers have an opportunity to audition for other local

shows throughout the year.

Everyone at Age Concern North Norfolk and G.I.F.T. would like to thank everyone who participated and supported the event as there were some truly amazing performances and we were all amazed at the incredibly high standard of entries. The Overall winners were The Volko Trio, comprising of Dad (Christopher) on the piano, Hector aged 10 on the vibraphone and Calypso aged 7 on the drums and they live in Holt. The father is originally from Paris. Their jive performance of ‘Happy’ by Pharrell Williams on piano, drums and xylophone had everyone foot tapping and dancing in the aisles and also local singer Melanie Brown who is well known to many as the face behind the Fit Together walks.

Organiser, Yvonne Tiffany, from G.I.F.T. said " I was very pleased with the high standard again this year, and think we have found something special with the talent from The Volko Trio" (they are on You Tube under The Volko Trio).

The event is all part of a yearlong campaign to help raise funds for Age Concern North Norfolk, a small local charity, that was chosen by G.I.F.T. as a deserving charity to support throughout 2016 and all funds will go back into the charities much needed and well used services like day care on Cremer Street and the Befriending Scheme.

Cromer & District Royal Antediluvian Order of the Buffaloes The RAOB is one of the largest fraternal organisations in the United Kingdom. The Order was started in 1822, and is known as the Buffs to members.

On Tuesday 15 March at 7pm the Sitting Primo, Tony Wiles, of the Cromer & District RAOB presented the Dialysis Department at Cromer Hospital with a cheque for £3,500. In his speech Tony commented “when my wife Betty, found that she needed to go onto a dialysis machine in order to remove unwanted waste products from her blood, due to the kidneys being damaged or dysfunctional, I suddenly realised how important the Dyalisis Dept & the dialysis machines are. At a meeting of the Cromer & District Royal Antediluvian Order of the Buffaloes, I suggested that our charity for 2015/ 2016 should be to raise money for the Cromer Hospital, Dialysis Department. The end product of this meeting was, after much hard work by our members & friends,

that we raised £3,500. It is now my great pleasure on behalf of the Cromer & District RAOB, to hand over to you this cheque for £3,500.

Nursing Sister Janet Dickinson, received the cheque on behalf of the Dialysis Dept.

THE SHEEPSHED

The Sheepshed is closing and I would like to thank all customers for their support over the last 43 years. I will miss you all,

The need to review your Will in the light of the new Inheritance Tax Residential Nil Rate Band written by Miranda Marshall – Director at Hayes + Storr

The new Inheritance Tax Residence Nil Rate Band (RNRB) has it roots back in 2007 when the Conservative opposition said that they were in favour of increasing the Nil Rate Band (NRB) to £1M.

Although newspaper headlines have suggested that the new RNRB has that effect, this is very far from correct. A few lucky people will in 2020/21 have a combination of nil rate bands that add up to £1M, but they will be very much in the minority.

Because the new RNRB is very closely targeted being tied to homes and only available to lineal descendants, it can work in an illogical and unfair fashion. The ordinary NRB is being frozen at £325,000 to pay for the RNRB, whereas otherwise it would have started to increase from the end of 2017/18.

The new RNRB has to be claimed by the deceased’s executors - it is not automatic.

‘Closely inherited’ also needs careful scrutiny. ‘Closely’ means that it must pass to a lineal descendent; or to a spouse or civil partner of a lineal descendent. ‘Children’ includes step-children, foster children and

children who have been adopted by a third party. ‘Closely’ does not include co-habitees, dependent or vulnerable family members.

It is possible to vary a Will so as to become eligible for the RNRB.

Only certain sorts of trust will be eligible for the RNRB and this produces unfairness and inconsistency, particularly where there are minor beneficiaries. Specialist advice is particularly necessary here.

The RNRB will start at £100,000 in 2017/18 and will rise by £25,000 yearly, until it reaches £175,000 in 2020/21. Thereafter it will increase in line with the Consumer Prices Index.

Debts charged on the residence are deducted, so only the net equity gets the RNRB. It might therefore beneficial to switch secured debts to other assets.

Above £2M the RNRB is withdrawn by £1 for every £2 in excess of £2M exemptions and reliefs are ignored.

Spouses may wish to leave assets away from the survivor to prevent their aggregated estates exceeding £2M. Lifetime gifts are exempt in working out the value of the estate

and this gives great opportunities for clever planning, including ‘death bed’ gifts.

The ‘downsizing’ rules are complex and somewhat arbitrary. It is vital to keep all the paperwork to provide the evidence needed by HMRC in the event of death.

Once this new and extremely complicated relief arrives in April 2017, the need to take specialist advice will never have been greater.

THE NORTH NORFOLK GARDENER ORCHIDS

With the next Olympic Games being held in Brazil we will be seeing and hearing a lot about this country in the coming months. Most of us will not be lucky enough to travel to South America to enjoy the event first hand or to enjoy the spectacular noise, colour and smells; however, in March, a taste of Brazil came to London. The Princess of Wales Conservatory in Kew Gardens was filled with the exotic flora of the world’s undisputed capital of carnival as the annual Orchids Festival celebrated the incredibly rich biodiversity of the planet’s fifth largest country, Brazil.

This vast country is home to more than 37,000 plant species that grow in six distinct ecological areas. Over 18,000 of these plants are endemic to Brazil and grow nowhere else on earth.

The horticultural team at Kew created a stunning display of breath taking beauty that transported visitors to the tropics. There were

orchids suspended from the ceiling and walk through arches bedecked with instantly recognisable equatorial favourites such as Phalaenopsis and Oncidium. Two towering ‘Rainforest Tree’ pillars showcased colourful Anthurium and Bromeliaceae while in the conservatory’s pond, dancing floral figures helped to capture the spirit of Carnival. On a cold and windy March afternoon it was the perfect escape from the winter blues.

It is of course very easy nowadays to buy orchids from a garden centre or supermarket to grow as houseplants. Many people start with the Phalaenopsis orchid also known as the moth orchid, which comes in a variety of shapes, sizes and colours but all have the same growth habit, which is three to five or more flat fleshy leaves, with one or two flowering stems growing from between them, and each stem can hold from six to over a dozen beautiful blooms.

The thickness of the leaf of an orchid generally indicates the climate it needs - thick fleshy leaved orchids are warm growers from the tropics, whilst orchids with thin and more elongated leaves usually like it on the cooler side. The cymbidium is a good example of cool growing orchids.

Cool growing orchids will burn in full sun, and do best in a temperature range of 50 to 65 degrees. The

cymbidium actually enjoys being outside for the summer, but make sure it cannot be eaten by pests or absolutely soaked in wet weather.

Where is the best place to keep an orchid? Well for warm growing Phalaenopsis, find a nice well lit window, ideally facing east or west, with some shade from the midday sun, perhaps provided by a net curtain. Make sure that the night temperature does not fall below 55 degrees or the plant will suffer. Water thoroughly about once every seven days in summer and about once every ten days in winter. Always water from the top and don’t let the pot stand in water. Do not overfeed, use a quarter strength solution of something like Tomorite if you do not wish to buy a specific orchid fertiliser.

If looked after properly orchids will live and flower once or twice a year for many years to come. Bob Wilkinson

North East Norfolk Bird Club (NENBC)

Outdoor Event - Swanton Novers Great Wood on 17 April 09:00 13:00 - a walk in Swanton Novers Great Wood for spring migrants, though we will also be looking at plants, butterflies and possibly moths. This event is for both beginners and reasonably experienced birders. We will visit a part of the wood that is normally not open to the general public, and we will be guided by the Natural England warden, Robert Baker. The walking is on the level, though at this time of year the wood can be very wet and wellingtons are strongly advised. There are ticks in the wood, so suitable precautions are advised (avoid shorts, for example!). We will meet at the car-park and Natural England raptor watch-point at TG 010303. This is a field off (to the north) the Hindolveston to Fulmodeston Road, just west of the cross-roads with the B1110 from Holt to Guist. The postcode NR21 0NG is for Common Farm, which is south of the Hindolveston to Fulmodeston road, but near the watch-point car-park. From here we will combine into as few cars as possible, and then make a short drive to the start of the walk.

As numbers are limited for this trip, please email Andy Clarke (ac1967@cantab.net) at least 48 hours beforehand if you are intending to come. Children are welcome if accompanied by well-behaved adults, but we regret dogs are not allowed in the Great Wood. To keep the club's carbon footprint small, please consider car sharing. The leaders will be Andy Clarke (NENBC), and Robert Baker (NE).

Felbrigg Park - mid-week walk on 20 April 09:00 - 11:00 - this walk caters for all levels of ability. We will take a leisurely walk around the Park & Lake and finish with refreshments (optional) at the NT cafe. Please wear clothing appropriate to the weather - footpaths in Felbrigg can be muddy at any time of the year. Meet at Sexton's Lodge car park, off Lion's Mouth, NR11 8PS. To keep the club's carbon footprint small, please consider car sharing. Sheringham Independent 437

Easter Procession

This year’s Easter Procession began at St Peter's Church after a joint service for Good Friday.

In the centre of the town, prayers were led by Pastor Ian Savory from the Lighthouse Community Church with music by the Salvation Army Band.

The procession then climbed Beeston Hill (Bump) where prayer were said at the top and the blessing was given by the Roman Catholic Priest, The Revd Denys Lloyd. Photos: Robin Myerscough

Big Society Fund – the results

North Norfolk District Council fund helps communities meet their ambitions

It’s been a busy month for North Norfolk District Council’s Big Society Fund, with three separate openings of part-funded projects in the space of a few days.

The Fund announced its latest round of grants last month but there has also been a flurry of final project delivery across North Norfolk with three very different projects officially launched. Cllr Tom FitzPatrick, Leader of North Norfolk District Council and Cabinet Member for Big Society, was asked to officially open a new play area off Gordon Road, Melton Constable, on 19 March.

In June 2015 a Big Society Fund grant of £5,000 was awarded to purchase an outdoor table tennis table and accessible birds nest swing as part of the wider play area project. On the same day, Cllr FitzPatrick also attended the opening of Holt Pavilion, where a new kitchen, toilets, office and storage with disabled access plus new changing rooms for both players and officials have been created. The Big Society Fund contributed £10,000 in 2013 towards a six-figure target.

And on 10 March, Cllr Angie Fitch-Tillett, Deputy Leader at North Norfolk District Council, officially launched the North Walsham

Luxury Mercedes vehicles for airport/seaport & long distance travel

Good Neighbour Scheme website at an event in No 1 Market Place, North Walsham, home of Arts North Norfolk.

In September the scheme was awarded a Big Society Fund grant which enabled the creation of the website to act as another channel for contact from volunteers, requests for assistance and donations, as well as promoting the scheme to a much wider public.

Cllr FitzPatrick said “It’s always very satisfying to consider and agree grant funding applications for local groups doing such excellent work. “But it’s also incredibly rewarding on a whole other level to see those hardworking groups deliver the end result and view the physical delivery of plans created by the community, for the community.” NNDC's Big Society Fund offers grants of up to £15,000 to voluntary and community

North Walsham and District Branch of Cats Protection

A few weeks ago I wrote about the little blind cat that was handed into our care and had been re-homed with one of our fosterers. We knew at the time that she had serious health problems which could not be treated and just wanted to make sure her final weeks were spent in a loving home where she had a nice warm bed, food and water but, most importantly of all, someone to love and care for her. Sadly this dear little cat’s health deteriorated and a final visit to the vets had to be made. Although not with them very long, her family was sad to lose her as she was such a loving little cat.

We also wrote recently about the importance of micro chipping cats but mentioned that, if details of the owner are not recorded or kept up to date, it can cause problems as was evident when Harvey, a stray cat, was handed into our care recently by David at Bridge Vets. He had been taken into the surgery as he was in a dreadful condition and, as well as needing a dental, his coat was so matted it had to be shaved. The concerned family who took him to the Bridge would have offered him a home if his owners could not be found but, unfortunately, a blood test indicated he could be FIV positive and, as they have other cats, this option was ruled out. More blood tests will be taken once he is in better condition. As is routine practice nowadays, he was scanned to check for a micro chip and a chip was located and the number taken. Unfortunately, we now have two challenges as the chip had not been registered and the indications are that it was purchased in America. We are therefore trying to identify the company who made the chip as they may be able to provide information as to where and when it was purchased. Although we do not think that in this instance we will have any success, we will do what we can to find the original owner. Harvey is not a young cat and at present does not look his best, but is very friendly and loving. If his next blood test confirms he is FIV positive, he will need an indoor home either as the only cat in the household or one with other FIV positive cats.

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.

Ziva a lovely light tortie girl, Cats Protection North Walsham is now on age 6 years Facebook and will keep people advised of forthcoming events, news of our cats and other activities. Information on cats and kittens for re-homing can still be found on our website and enquiries for them should still be via Stephanie.

Spring has Sprung at Animal Magic Dog Club

Spring is officially here, the daffodils are in bloom and lambs are appearing in the fields.

But did you know that if your dog eats or licks any part of the daffodil – the bulb, plant or flower, they will ingest an alkaloid called Lycorine which can make your dog very poorly indeed.

Other spring plants such as tulips, hyacinths, crocuses and lily of the valley are also toxic and you should seek help from your vet if you think you dog has ingested any of these plants. It is a cruel trick of nature that some of the most beautiful, colorful springtime plants pose a deadly temptation to the four-legged members of your family.

The winter term at Animal Magic is almost at an end and we have a fun packed timetable of classes to look forward to during spring.

Animal Magic Dog Club based near North Walsham is a fun, family orientated club offering a wide range of training for puppies, junior and adult dogs. For more information on the club and classes available please call Kathy on 01263 720730 or visit our web site www.animal-magix.co.uk

THE KITCHEN REFURBISHMENT SPECIALISTS

April, May & June Weather Predictions April will continue the theme, with a mix of weather and temperatures oscillating above and below average and it will not be until we are well into May that we will see a few much warmer days. There is nothing to suggest that there will be any prolonged fine weather.

June is likely to continue the balance starting to become established in May, where the percentage of fine days over changeable conditions starts to erode but, as we get some very warm days, the risk of heavy showers will definitely increase. Throughout May and June there will be some marked daily variations in temperature.

This summer is also worth watching, as conditions will be at hand to generate some intense rainfall although this might be further south over Europe. Is this the start of our promised Mediterranean climate/summer? No. Just the odd Mediterranean day. Ned Nimbus

DOT Therapy

The No 1 Anti aging breakthrough of the decade is available at the Coltishall Cosmetic Clinic.

*Powerfully reverses 5-10 years of skin aging, wrinkles, sun spots. *Dramatically reduces old acne and trauma related scarring. *Minimises risk of future development of skin cancers.

According to many doctors, this is a skin-resurfacing treatment known as CO2 laser therapy. If you have moderate to severe wrinkles, age spots, melasma or acne scarring, if you wish to improve tone, texture and colour of your skin then this is the treatment to have. It beats any other non CO2 laser skin rejuvenation technique.

Although ‘gold-standard’ conventional CO2 laser resurfacing achieves great results some people do not want to have the procedure repeated because of a longer recovery period.

0800 0430737

To avoid the risks of complications and reduce recovery time recently new technology called fractional laser resurfacing has been developed. This truly is a remarkable breakthrough. Here the laser beam is broken up into many small micro beams. which are separated so that when they strike the skin surface small areas of the skin between the beams are left intact. These small areas or bridges of untreated skin promote a rapid recovery and healing with less risk of complications.

www.coltishallclinic.co.uk

Dr Sanjay Gheyi MBBS MS FRCS BCAAM, Medical Director and Laser Surgeon of Coltishall Cosmetic Clinic has more than ten years experience with lasers. He has had one to one training from pioneers of this technology in Italy and has reproduced excellent results in his clinic.

Paralympics Charity Dinner

Local Nissan car dealers, Crayford and Abbs, will be hosting a Paralympic – Nissan Charity Black Tie Dinner on 30 April at The Links Hotel, West Runton.

Guest Speaker will be double amputee ex-serviceman Darren Slater.

In 2009 Duncan was on patrol in Afghanistan when the vehicle he was travelling in detonated an IED. The explosion caused him severe foot and leg injuries, which led to a double lower leg amputation. In 2012 he was medically discharged from the military.

Since then he has been part of an ex-servicemen expedition to the South Pole organised by the charity Walking with the Wounded in 2013 – accompanied by HRH Prince Harry. He also ran the London Marathon in 2015 and plans to complete the Marathon Des Sables in April 2016.

Duncan has recently joined the charity, Disabled Motoring UK as its new External Affairs Manager.

Tickets are £40PH and are available from Kevin Abbs at Crayford & Abbs on 01263 588160. There will also be an auction and raffle

Call for more planning enforcement rejected Gas Safe 546275

Conservative councillors have voted down plans to cut delays in dealing with planning issues in North Norfolk.

North Norfolk District Council Liberal Democrat Councillors called for more staff to be appointed to deal with a large backlog of cases where developments had allegedly taken place without planning permission. The move was rejected by Conservative Councillors who run the Council.

At the Council's Overview & Scrutiny Committee, Liberal Democrat Councillor Eric Seward called on the Council to spend an extra £100,000 on its enforcement work. This came after the Council had received a financial report showing an expected surplus of £876,000 for the current financial year.

HEADS AHEAD Ladies & Gents Hair Designers

Liberal Democrat Councillor Sarah Butikofer said it was a shame such a modest proposal that would have improved council services was rejected by the ruling Conservative group.

Councillor Seward told the Committee that little more than one full time officer could not deal with a backlog of some 250 cases. Also, in the last three years the Council had not fined anyone who let their dogs persistently foul public foot paths or dropped litter in public places as there were no staff to deal with it.

North Norfolk Speakers Club

On Wednesday 16 March, North Norfolk Speakers Club held their annual International Speech and Evaluation Contests.

Contest Chair, Clive Willet, hosted a very enjoyable and successful evening, while Sue Eastman, Area Director, delivered a memorable Test Speech entitled ‘Turn Hate to Love’for the Evaluation Contest.

The standard of speeches and evaluations was exceptionally high from all contestants. Paul Rosier, who stood out above the rest with his inspirational speech entitled ‘Just a Minute’ and with his excellent and perceptive speech evaluation, gained first place in both contests - a very well deserved double win! Paul will represent his club in both categories at the Area Contest, hosted by RAF Mildenhall on Tuesday 5th April.

North Norfolk Speakers Club meets every other Wednesday, 6,45pm at North Walsham High School, Spenser Avenue, North Walsham. Guests and new members are always welcome. For further information please visit www.nnsc.co.uk, email northnorfolkspeakersclub@gmail.com or contact Gillian 01692 650250 24

Major Sponsor for Cromer Soapbox Derby Pub Challenge

Woodfordes Brewery has announced their support for this year’s Cromer Soapbox Derby, which being staged on Sunday 7 August, with the first cart away at 1pm. Using the same venue as last year, along the A149 from East Coast Motors to Morrisons Petrol Station, this year’s course will have a steeper start ramp, higher jumps and a tighter chicane.

The Sporting Car Club of Norfolk will be providing the timing and scrutineering for the event and are planning to bring along a number of cars for a static display.

Woodfordes are inviting pubs from across the county to take up the challenge, with the winning pub and driver and second placed driver in the ‘Pub Class’ being presented with Woodfordes Ales.

Area rep, Julie Hawksworth, took control of last year’s winning entry from the White Horse in Cromer, saying “this is the first time I have

been in control of a soapbox, although I have stood on one a few times” She continued “I am hoping for a new company car later this year and might suggest that this is the ideal vehicle, although I would need the occasional push when going uphill”.

The White Horse, Cromer took the prize for the fastest car in last year’s event and went on to sell their cart at a charity auction, raising funds for the Norfolk and Norwich Neonatal IT Unit (NICU). They have already raised in excess of £17,000 and are well on their way to their target of £20,000.

White Horse owner Annie Kemp said “we are delighted with the support we have received and are very confident that we will soon reach our target”.

April

How I love the springtime, The birds are in full song. They start as soon as dawn breaks, And sing sweetly all day long. Raindrops glisten on the trees And every bright spring flower, The countryside is fresh and green, After an April shower. The cold grey winter has now passed, And the earth awakes once more, April showers and sunshine Have opened nature’s door

Diane Berthelot

Mike Quenby, the new owner of last year’s winning cart, is planning to enter the cart in this year’s event and his grandson Owen is already in training. Asked if he could win the event he said “we have the best cart from 2015 so we must be in with a very good chance”.

Peter MacMillan, last year’s winning driver, is confident that their new design will be even faster and is looking forward to the day. He

said “I can’t wait for the event and I am certain that we will be on the top step of the podium”.

He continued “We are already underway with the new design and are lucky to have the same designer as last year. Steven Harbour did a great job and we are very pleased with the work so far”.

Carnival Chairman Tony Shipp said “entries are already coming in and we have had interest from as far away as Northampton, so we are looking forward to a bigger entry than ever - and with Woodfordes agreeing to support our ‘Pub Class’, we are sure that there will be plenty of racing and keen competition”.

Entry forms regulations are available on the Cromer Carnival web site www.cromercarnival.co.uk

We have a very busy ‘Mini Kickers’ for Under 5 and 6 year olds. Those old enough will move to form the new Under 7s under manager Robert Pratt for the 2016/17 season.

The U6s Mini Kickers

All three adult teams have worked hard this year under managers Roy Bevis, Adam Warricker and Graham Webster and their respective assistants. Both the First and Reserves are well placed in their leagues to look for promotion. The Under 18s are this

Weybourne Village Hall is raising funds to carry out expensive replacement of the roof and refurbishment of other parts of the hall. The Village Hall committee are hoping to raise funds via grant-giving bodies but we also have to raise money by our own efforts.

There are two table tennis groups using the hall and they are getting together to raise funds to help pay for this work.

The 25 players are all pensioners whose ages range from 66 to 83 – there are seven players over 80! This group are going to play table tennis for six hours continuously, from 9am until 3pm on Wednesday 20 April in the Village Hall.

Members of the teams are approaching local Funeral Directors to sponsor the event but you too can support this valiant effort – sponsor a player you might know. Come to Weybourne Village Hall to watch come and pay-to-play on a spare table sponsor us through MyDonate/ Weybourne Village Hall. A full report of the event will appear in a later issue of the Sheringham Independent. Keep a look out for future events!

season mid table, higher than ever before in this competitive league and are now working on their second stage of a cup run. Several players from the Under 18s over the last four years now play in the three adult sides.

Across the Club ‘Fast Forward Sports’ Ben Price has been helping this season with some training sessions for all teams including the adult sides. His presence at training and some matches has made a big difference within the club. Ben brings consistency throughout the teams, new training ideas and support for the managers. First team with the Under 9s

To run a club of this size means a lot of volunteers are needed - managers, groundsmen, committee members, caterers, running the gate, linesmen, fund raising, sponsors. The Club can only be as good as the people behind it. Extra hands needed? Of course! As we approach the end of the season for all teams, the Club looks to next season. Some youth teams need more players as they go from 5 to 9 a side in September. The Under 10s run by manager Vinnie Peart is looking to recruit a few new players. This team train on a Tuesday at 5.30pm.
