    1:45 Kings Lynn was never an “Ancient city” it was a port and market town and in 1537 it was actually known as Bishop's Lynn and colloquially known as Lynn which it still is referred as of today

    I grew up on Bedford St which was a bit downtrodden by quirky with Hattons the Tobaconist round the corner and a very reclusive Mrs Ransom who would pop out of her back gate and scare all the kids

      It’s also interesting to learn that Duce meant the devil, one of my other ancestors is James “Duce” Norris who also lived in kings Lynn north end. It’s all very spooky.

    Not gonna lie, I was walking through Pilot St a few month back from a night out around 23:40ish night I swear I saw the lady in the cottage in the window. I freaked out quickly took my heels off and I think that’s the fastest I ever ran!
