Surely they must be coming to Ossy Civic Theatre as well?

Just have a night in Great Yarmouth and then you can follow them all round the country on tour.

Home from home.

It's quite a clean place.
Have they done that monument yet norwich stanley or have they knocked it down ?

Do you mean Nelsons monument? if so £500,000 has just been spent on it, and it is no longer "at risk".

It all sounds good, we're stopping at Hopton (Haven) which is just a little way out of Great Yarmouth but still has a great beach apparently. Shame I'll miss out on the Krankies but I'm sure that Hopton has equally bad cabaret as well.

YES I DO, yay thats great news, thats one less impressive monument at risk. Boy is that tall. wonder how it compares to nelsons column which is also being repaired at the moment.

Yep, I remember some great crazy golf courses down there, the American Theme Park at Corton and you can get the train to Norwich which is worth a look around. Mind you we did spend the week dancing to Freeez so it mayhave changed a little!

Stuff the cabaret, didn't someone from your dim and distant past once comment on your knees?

You could come back a winner!

No, I commented on his knees!

Anyway, mine are more chunky than knobbly.

I am sure you will have great holiday. I seem to remember there was a village just outside Great Yarmouth with a 'theme park' that sounded good. All old Norfolk farm things and old fair ground rides. I'll see if I can find it later today and put the link on here.

That was the Bygone Village Claytonender-unfortunatly it has closed down and everything auctioned off.
