    Just catching up after our week in Norfolk I’ve just bit the bullet and ordered an electric bike at the Norfolk show, good to see the bike back in action. We’re not over fussed on dead level, we use the sliding door as a rough guide if it shuts its tipping forward if it slides open its tipping back… we parked in that car park in Cromer but we had chips from Mary Janes they were awesome. Well done for not letting Kirsty down on her birthday 👍

      thats great news about the bike ! 👍 must admit been contemplating about it myself, especially when seeing them at the shows , a good move i think one you wont regret when going up the next hill
      cheers both 👍

    Now thats what I call dedication on the fish and chip run! Looked good despite the extended journey. We are in Seacroft next weekend 21/4/23 on our first trip so will be having the fish and chips for sure 👍😁. Laburnham looks great. Plan on visiting that one in the near future, if we can get in!? Know the area well as visited Incleborough many times when we had a Caravan. Only about 40 mins from where we live so regularly visiting Sherringham / Cromer. We like a couple of beers in the Robin Hood then onto Daves fish bar for posh sit down 😁🍻. We have only lived in the area 33 years but seen more sites from watching your videos the last few days then we knew existed. Thanks guys.

      it’s a good hour or more for us to reach sheringham and cromer we love it up there , yes it was a bit of a long ride on an old bike (since replaced 😀) that day i’ll never forget it ! , funny you should mention the incleboro site i think it’s the only one we’ve never stayed at , can’t beat a good bit of coastal fish n chips in the van 👍😁 thanks again for watching the videos

What a lovely site it was and a wonderful location, well worth the 5.5 hour drive from Southampton. Will definitely be coming back to Norfolk again. That was some fish & chip run, glad they were still nice & hot. At least Frenchie's now come on site at Pinewoods - another of your recommendations we had to try! Happy belated birthday Kirsty. John, Brian &Harvey.

    Great video and some fantastic photography. I thought you wouldn’t have the energy to eat your fish and chips after that bike ride! You did a great job cycling to and from Cromer for Kirsty’s birthday dinner 😁. We’re in North Yorkshire tonight and the home tomorrow after a fantastic two weeks in Norfolk and Suffolk. We stayed in West Runton and walked to and from Cromer with the dogs. We went into, I think it was the Red Lion, in Cromer for beer and fish and chips, we did see No1 but it was so hot we needed beer! We walked along the beach back to West Runton. We also went to Hunstanton and Wells-next-the Sea, the beaches were amazing and next time I’m bringing my cossy 😁. We also went to Southwold which we loved and we had more beer and fish and chips! The entire holiday has been amazing and we thought of you and Kirsty enjoying your trip also. Thanks for sharing a fantastic video. We’re definitely coming back soon . 😊

Your comment about the scones took me back to a comment a good friend of mine made about 30 years ago. I don’t know why but whenever I think of it I always laugh! We stayed with her in Coventry and she said, you must visit our local Indian he’s got the biggest naans you’ve ever seen! It just cracked me up for some reason.
