I never ride faster than angels can fly said Christine Collins from Wickford, Essex sitting astride her black and chrome Harley FatBob. Earlier on that day, around 400 Harleys (a two mile convoy) throbbed into Sheringham - Softtail Customs, Ultra-Glides, Softtail Heritages, Dynaglides, Fatboys, Roadkings, Sportster Trikes, Fatbobs, Dyna Switchbacks, Ironheads, not a plastic bullet* or rice eater* in sight. This was primarily a Fenlander Hog gathering and gather they did but not just from the Fens...Suffolk, Cambs, Essex, Yorkshire, The Netherlands, Leeds, Nottingham all were proudly represented by riders wearing tags such as Fatboy Bazza, Jumper, Two Dogs, and Ironhead.

Vinny from Cambridge said were a clan, some of us come to Harleys when were 17, some of us at 70, makes no difference as we have a common bond..our Harley. His co-rider, Richard, added ...and our philosophy is loud pipes save lives, you know when a Harley is behind you, were cruisers not bruisers. Jumper (ex-paratrooper) had a Sportster Trike conversion. He said I never wore a helmet until I was hit by a bumble bee. The combined impact was around 120kph. Swerved, hit a curb and my trike and I parted company.... 6k of damage to the trike, almost total damage to me. An inside joke shared between David, Del & Tina..... not too good on bends, just like American cars, drive them straight no probs, go round and they whip.

HANDY NUMBERS

From The Editor

Yes, it is indeed Carnival time again. Once again Cromer is set to run the ever popular Carnival, full of fun and with all the events that are enjoyed by all the locals and visitors alike. I never cease to be always highly impressed by how well the Carnival committee pull it off. Whether it is getting all the tents etc. set up in the right locations or organising the breakfast for the many unpaid volunteers throughout the Carnival weeks and of course ensuring that everything runs smoothly during the parade through town on Carnival Day. Tony Shipp MBE is one of those people who always seems to pull everyone together in a calm and well organised way. Come rain or shine, the Cromer Carnival always works out brilliantly and I am in no doubt that Tonys ability to manage people is due to his many years of working in education before his retirement a couple of years ago. (See Page 12 for all the details) On August 7th, I enjoyed joining the parade in the Sheringham Carnival (See Page 8) They are now in their 3rd year since being re-formed and they also have a great team of people organising it all. Having turned up in my silly VW Kubelwagen on my own, I met a young man keen to admire my silly car, so I invited him to join me while driving around the streets of Sheringham and getting him to take the photographs. I was impressed by how well organised it all was while we drove along the route, even
e-mail to:

without any street barriers along the route. I would like to thank Hubba (aka Dave Roberts) for the photograph above. I draw readers attention to the photograph on Page 4 of Paul Reynolds half shaven face, I thought he looked more handsome with his beard than without it. I have to take my hat off to Victoria Craske for her fund raising climb in the mist. (Page 4) Many of you may well recall that Victoria was a senior attendent in the Cromer Carnival Royal Party some years ago now, she was always a thoughtful and lovely young lady.

We watched the second show the following week, which was a great improvement on the first and during the interval we saw the same man and told him that no one had been in touch, he again apologized for this and assured me some one would contact me. Some weeks later I saw a young lady promoting the show in Nth Walsham. I told her my story and she said that was awful and that someone would definitely be in touch the next day. Guess what? I am still waiting. I do not expect any compensation, just an apology and perhaps an update on what has been done to improve the situation but obviously the customer is not important to these people so please warn all your readers: Do not Book The Front Row on show one. Dear Philip, Regards, I am writing to you to warn theatre Janine Robinson goers who want to see the Seaside Special Show one DO NOT book Dear Crab Tales, seats in the front row. In light of all the forthcoming I took my sister to see the show for nostalgia weekends & festivals the first time (Ive seen it many times) I would just like to say I cant we sat in the front row and during remember the 60s at..! the first half, a bubble machine was Apparently I got senile dementia used and we were appalled to be when I was, ooh lets say 58, covered with bubbles, our hair was I think. soaking and our clothes were wet. Yours sincerefully During the interval I told one of the management team that it was not Erm?, what-is-name good as we now had to sit through Oh Yes, the second half in damp clothing. R Yeomans He apologized and assured me Memory Lame. someone would be in touch about this matter. Letters continued on Page 4 I live in Mundesley and have been following Janet Munros comments about the flowers (or lack of) in the beds above the slope to the beach. I have seen some of the beds in Cromer which also have the wild flowers in them and they look fine, but there is obviously a problem with the ones in Mundesley, they look awful, especially as we are now entering the main six week tourist part of the year. Surely there should be some back up plan to plant normal bedding plants in these circumstances, or if they are that desperate to save money it would look better if they just grassed them all over! Keep up the good work, Ian Pilcher.

Dear Editor,
I would like to thank you for advertising our Great Ormond Street Hospital charity event that was held in July at The Links Hotel in West Runton. The event was a great success and raised 1,358.42 for the charity, which could pay for a recliner chair/sofa for parents to stay with their child at GOSH, or two new playrooms within the hospital, or 135 overnight stays for parents at the hospital hotel Weston House. Children was entertained by our surprise Disney guests, Mickey and Minnie mouse, and we had over 175 raffle prizes. A big thank you to local & national businesses for donating and supporting our charity event, and everyone who attended. We are now considering holding another charity for Great Ormond Street Hospital next summer. As a GOSH family we know much of a difference this money will make to so many families. Many Thanks Chris and Chloe White

Dear Philip,
The Mount Snowdon challange was completed and I just want to thank all your readers and the fantastic clients of Hair Couture for their generous donations in helping me raise 622 for the Alzheimers society.

Dear Philip,
We were pleased to be in Mundesley to see the Mundesley Players production of A Midsummer Nights Dream on the last night. What a treat that was. From the novel staging, fine costumes and the excellent acting. Thanks to all involved and special congratulations to the Director. Having seen the outdoor production in Regents Park, while learning the play for GCE O level many years ago, it was great to see it again. A truly dreamlike evening. Maureen Johnson Ware, Hertfordshire

Dear Philip,
To Shave or not to Shave

As you can see from the photo above, the day itself did not go as expected, as thick fog and extremely high winds tried to dampen our spirits but the five of us together (Barry Foulser, Sandra Foulser, Nathan Foulser and Jennifer Armstrong) ploughed on with the aid of jelly babies! Thank-you again for all of your suport and kind messages. Roll on the next challange. Yours, Victoria Craske

Dear Editor,
On the 27th of July the rain held off giving the villagers of Southrepps a beautiful day to attend their dog show, being held in conjunction the Vernon Arms Beer Festival. It was really good fun stated sponsor Lesley Bradford of Gog Magog Hills Farm Shop, Cambridge, I wanted to give back to the village, its a lovely place and the people are so friendly. Matt Gordon and 7 month old Rolo, an Old English Sheep Dog, stole the show. After grabbing a first in Best six legs they went on to win the title of

Some of these actors are so two faced. See above. Thanks Paul Reynolds

Bill, riding a 1997 Heritage Springer said, not if youve got a European frame. Wimp retorted David. *A plastic but to anything that isnt a Harley. Richard summed it up with: if you want to ride a bike get a Raleigh Chopper, if you want to ride a Bike, only buy a Harley. PS To hark back to Christines remark about angels, it certainly was a piece of Harley Heaven! Editor would like to thank Bee for sending us these wonderful photos and her article about the Harley - Davisons visit to Sheringham on Saturday July 26th.

Worlds Oldest Running Car

Sells For $4.62M
In A 3 Minute Bidding War
This is the oldest motor vehicle car in the world that is still running and was built one year before Karl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler invented the internal combustion engine. The vehicle has been sold at auction for more than double the pre-sale estimate, as 2 of the bidders chased the price up in a three-minute bidding war. The 1884 De Dion Bouton et Trepardoux Dosa-Dos Steam Runabout drew a standing ovation as it was driven up onto the stage at Fridays Auction in Hershey, Pennsylvania, to prove that this 127-yr-old car really does run and attracted a starting bid of $500k, which was immediately doubled to $1M. Encouraged by the applauding crowd, bidding went swiftly up to $4.2M - 4.62M including the 10% commission, before the car was knocked down to a unnamed buyer. The Dos-a-Dos (Back-to-Back) Steam Runabout was built in 1884 by George Bouton & Charles -Armand Trepardoux for French entrepreneur Count de Dion, who named it La Marquise after his mother. In 1887, with De Dion at the tiller, it won the worlds first ever motor race (it was the only entrant to make the start line!) covering the 32km from the Pont de Neuilly in Paris to

Versailles and back in One hour and 14 mins (an average of 25.9km/h) and, according to contemporary reports, hitting a breathtaking 60km/h on the straights. La Marquise has only had four owners, and remained in one family for 81 yrs and has been restored twice, once by the Doriol family and again by the British collector Tom Moore in the early 1990s. Since then, it has taken part in

four of the London-to -Brighton runs and has collected a double gold at the 1997 Pebble Beach dElegance in California. The Editor would like to thanks to David Thorne for sending us this. PK

Still Looking For Volunteers

After arriving at 8.30am at the new Coastwatch site in East Runton, on Saturday 27th of July, I realised I should have been there at 7.30am to cover the Marathon events going on that weekend, so decided to look round their new site in the car park overlooking the crab pots and sea. The Crab pots are an issue that I will not cover, other than to say that it is an issue that deserves no coverage from any publication. Having been a volunteer for the Mundesley Coastwatch I can recommend anyone to undertake the training involved to do a shift of say 2 hrs a week or more. Not only are the volunteers of this new site keeping a watch on the sea and the beach but are also

offering to look after your car keys as well, if you are one of those divers or surfers using the beach and sea below. Now, fully operational, despite them not having electricity on site as yet they are keen for those considering to volunteer for doing a shift or two every week to give Mike Derbyshire a ring on this number: 01263 511 949 PK

Always A Great Day

The Mundesley Lifeboat Day held on the park next to the Mundesley Coastwatch, is always a popular event every year, as it was once again on Sunday July 28th. It is very much all about the community getting together to have fun and raise money for this important voluntary service, saving lives out at sea.

Above: Amanda Ng with her daughter Daisy and friend Francesca. As always everyone enjoyed themselves and put their hands in their pockets to raise money for this local charity. Over 2000 was raised for the boat. PK Below: Some of the crew relaxing in the lifeboat which was on display.

The Mundesley Players Pull It All Off Again

Once again the production of A Midsummer Nights Dream was like any, and everything that is produced by the Mundesley Players, was a great success and very much enjoyed by all who rolled up to see their enchanting production at the Coronation Hall, which was performed each evening from the 25th to the 27th July. Interestingly, the way in which the stage was set up to extend more into the hall than usual made you feel much more involved in the production, as wherever you were seated, you were much closer to what was going on. With the singers located on the balcony above the entrance to the hall, there was a delightful atmosphere and along with the beautiful scenery, the balance was just right. The cast included about 25 or more local people, who were all very much hands on, to pull off a great performance without any prompting needed. Without mentioning all the cast, I would like to say that the work of the Director David Ros was brilliant as was, in no particular order, Christon Sharpe as Theseus, Neil Elison as Nick Bottom, Paul Reynolds as Oberon and Yasmine MacklinPage, with her wonderful voice as the Moth in the Fairies. It goes without saying that Dr Roger Burford as Peter Quince was brilliant, as was Cerian Ellson as Helena. In summary: everyone I spoke to on the night, and since, enjoyed the performance. Thank you Mundesley Players. PK Editor would like to thank Paul Damen for supplying these photographs.

Denise Burke
Labours General Election candidate for Nth Norfolk

North Norfolk Labour Party has selected their party chair Denise Burke to run as the Labour Parliamentary Candidate in North Norfolk at the 2015 General Election. Denise has led a number of local campaigns including the Act on Ambulances & Protect Our Post campaigns and is a school governor and a volunteer in the community. She works with her husband, Stephen, on a number of initiatives to improve care for both young and older people. She runs the Good Care Guide - a TripAdvisor style website for families using childcare & eldercare and United for All Ages bringing young and old people together. Between 2004 & 2010 she worked for the Mayor of London on childcare and youth strategy. Previously she worked as a tax inspector for ten years, and headed up early years and childcare for Peterborough city council. She has pledged to fight for better care & health, more jobs, improved transport, affordable housing & coastal protection in north Norfolk - all areas she believes Norman Lamb and the government have failed to adequately address. Speaking after her selection Mrs Burke said: I am proud and honoured that local members have selected me to be Labours general election candidate for North Norfolk. People here are being let down by Norman Lamb and a Tory-led Government that is making working families pay more while millionaires are getting a tax cut. Day in day out in Westminster Norman Lamb votes for policies that hurt people in North Norfolk and leave families here worse off. She added: North Norfolk now has a real choice in 2015 between three Tory parties or a One Nation Labour Party. More of the same or a big change for the better. With our ageing population and rural communities, there are some major issues to be tackled here. From affordable housing to jobs and transport, care and schools to regeneration, we must do better. My mantra is well behaved women rarely make history and Im not scared of standing up for what I believe in and fighting for justice for local people.

1,000 Policies For Saffron Insurance

Saffron Insurance Services opened an office in Cromers Bond Street on April 2nd for clients to receive insurance advice from Will Howett and his team. Since then hundreds of local residents have either phoned or popped in to organise their insurance. Will has been an insurance broker for many years and understands the needs of the local community and what a response he has received! Will Howett said: The feedback from businesses and residents has been fantastic. Saffron is very focused on good quality products at a competitive price, which all my clients have been pleased with. The 1,000th policy was taken out by Peter Davison who was presented with a bottle of champagne as a thank you. Peter has commercial, motor and home policies with Saffron and was delighted to receive the champagne. Peter said: Ive known Will for a long time and trust him; he has always looked after me.

Online does not always fit the bill, our needs are a bit more complex and we need to talk to someone. He added: When you talk to other insurance companies they do not always understand what you want, but Will does. Saffron can assist with all business, home, motor and life insurance. Why not pop in and see Will, Tracey, Peter or Toby, were sure theyll be able to help. Perhaps you can be the 2,000th policyholder. Visit us at 9 Bond Street in Cromer.

Even If Youre Not...

..........a Smallholder, this is a really fascinating Show, that Lis and I took a good friend along to on Sunday August 4th. The annual Norfolk Smallholders Training Group show and market took place in Sheringham Park, where we joined several hundred other good souls. I should to admit that, as a son of a New Zealand farmer, I have over the years lost touch with what farming is all about, particularly the breeds of livestock, many of which were on display here. It is always a very friendly and informative event for everyone to enjoy, including non farmers such as me. Alongside events in the main ring for dogs, their owners and children, this show does, I am sure, link the townies such as me with the local smallholders. Like NZ, England is one of those places where the link between the town and country folk needs to be improved, so that we understand and relate to each other better and this show is one of the best ways of doing it. As always the alpacas (Below On Right) tend to draw a great deal of attention from the hundreds of people who attend this great local show every year. Likewise the Working horse (On Right) . Whether it is tasting a healthy sample of roast pork from Brambles Farm pork or chatting to Rachel (below) with her dogs, from Canine Connections the whole day is well worth a visit this time next year, whether or not you are a townie or country person with your family in tow. So watch out for it as there is so much to be learnt and to enjoy at this great show. PK

Eight Minutes Equals 200 Of The Tickets Available

At 9.00am on Saturday August 3rd, Crossways Tobacconists in Cromer sold 200 of the 900 tickets available for the Fancy Dress Dance during Cromers Carnival. By 7.30am the first of many were already waiting outside this landmark building in Cromer to purchase their Fancy Dress Night tickets. Pictured Above: The regular souls who are behind the job of selling tickets to both the Fancy Dress Dance and also this year for the Wine tasting evening, which were all sold in less than 6 mins. In fact all of the 60 tickets to this event were sold by the time that this years Carnival Queen Jade Armstrong ( On Left ) had got to the shop. Above Right: L-R: Rosie Proctor who is going as a Fairy this year. Laura Amis as Dorothy out of the Wizard Of Oz Jacob Knight as a US 1940s General and Jackie who was there to purchase tickets to the Wine Tasting Evening, as was the gentleman behind Jackie. As is usually the case on this day, there was a very friendly atmosphere among all those waiting to purchase their tickets, even though the number of people waiting in the queue this year was quite a lot less than in previous years. Whatever happens, it is always a great night. PK

Menopause is defined as the time when a womans monthly periods stop permanently due to loss of ovarian activity. For most women this is a naturally occurring event but it can be brought on prematurely by surgery (ovarian removal). A hormonal imbalance then brings on menopausal symptoms, which are variable and unpredictable ranging from mild to severe. In the UK the average age for the menopause is 52 years. About 80% of women experience menopausal symptoms and 45% of women find them distressing. The symptoms are usually self-limiting and so will improve naturally and last between 2 to 5 years. The perimenopause is the period of time before the full menopause, corresponding to when the level of hormone is decreasing and ends twelve months after the last menstrual period, when the menopause begins. At this time falling levels of hormones cause menstrual periods to become irregular, usually scanty and infrequent. Other menopausal symptoms can also occur during this time and the management is the same as for the menopause. Common physical symptoms of the menopause include hot flushes, night sweats, sleep disturbances and urinary and vaginal changes. Other symptoms include mood changes, loss of sexual drive and skin changes. Many women will be able to manage their menopausal symptoms with lifestyle changes. Helpful activities include taking regular exercise, avoiding possible triggers for hot flushes and maintaining a regular sleep pattern. Most women will be happy to sit it out in the knowledge that symptoms will improve in their own given time. Unfortunately there is a group of women with either very severe symptoms or who have a premature menopause, when help is required. These women are often benefited with HRT (hormone replacement treatment). However these women do have to be carefully and individually assessed to make sure that the benefits of taking HRT outweigh any potential medical risks. Women with a premature menopause have an increased risk of osteoporosis (bone thinning causing fractures) & heart disease (especially if they smoke). The benefits of taking HRT include improvement of menopausal symptoms and a reduction in the risk of osteoporosis. The risks of taking HRT include a small increased in the risk of breast cancer, cancer of the womb, ovarian cancer and blood clots.

Menopause

For these reasons it is important that while on HRT the woman is regularly monitored to make sure that she is not getting unwanted side effects or increasing her risk of medical harm. Dr Angela Hallatt Mundesley Medical Centre

From The Week

Poll Watch
The British public tends to assume things are worse than they really are. 51% think violent crime is rising, when in fact it has fallen steadily since 2006. 29% think we spend more on Jobseekers Allowance than on pensions. In fact we spend 15 times more on pensions (4.9bn versus 74.2bn). We estimate, on average, that 24 in every 100 is lost to benefit fraud - when the real figure is 70p. We think 15% of girls under 16 get pregnant every year (the real figure is 0.6%). We think 43% of us voted in the last general election; it was actually 65%. Were also confused about the make-up of Britain: we assume that 31% of the population are immigrants (rather than 13%), and that 24% are Muslims (5% in England & Wales)

What They Said About Wives

When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her. Lee Majors After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin; they just can't face each other, but still they stay together. Al Gore By all means marry. If you get a good wife, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher. Socrates Woman inspires us to great things, and prevents us from achieving them. Mike Tyson The great question.. which I have not been able to answer... is, What does a woman want? George Clooney I had some words with my wife, and she had some paragraphs with me. Bill Clinton Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight, dinner, soft music & dancing. She goes Tuesdays, I go Fridays. George W. Bush "I don't worry about terrorism. I was married for two years." Rudy Giuliani "There's a way of transferring funds thats even faster than electronic banking. It's called marriage." Michael Jordan I've had bad luck with all my wives. The first one left me and the second one didnt. The third gave me more children! Donald Trump

Two secrets to keep your marriage brimming 1. Whenever you're wrong, admit it, 2. Whenever you're right, shut up. Shaquille ONeal The most effective way to remember your wife's birthday is to forget it once... Kobe Bryant You know what I did before I married? Anything I wanted to. David Hasselhoff My wife and I were happy for twenty years. Then we met. Alec Baldwin A good wife always forgives her husband when she's wrong. Barack Obama Marriage is the only war where one sleeps with the enemy. Tommy Lee A man inserted an 'ad' in the classifieds: "Wife wanted". Next day he received a hundred letters. They all said the same thing: "You can have mine." Brad Pitt First Guy (proudly): "My wife's an angel!" Second Guy: "You're lucky, mine's still alive." Jimmy Kimmel Honey, what happened to ladies first? Husband replies, Thats the reason why the worlds a mess today, because a lady went first! David Letterman First theres the promise ring, then the engagement ring, then the wedding ring ...soon after....comes Suffer...ing! Jay Leno Thanks to Lucie Laurent for this

Last year especially meant that Trosh took place before the harvest had finished so that available manpower was reduced. So the Trosh will be on Sunday 15th September on the new fields near the A140 Ingworth / Erpingham turn off. Follow the signs.

Priory Maze turning Blue

Dear Editor,
What an extraordinary response to an innocent swimmer ! Would Mr. Holmes have found it more acceptable for the gentleman to bathe fully clothed? Or perhaps Mr. Holmes is of the persuasion (voiced to me by a Norfolk primary school child) that you only swim in swimming pools - the sea is just for paddling in? Sarah Watkins Ingworth

Dear Philip,
As I know that you are a keen supporter of all things Mundesley, I expect that you were at Lifeboat Day. Mundesley Coastwatch( NCI Mundesley) regularly exercises with the Lifeboat crew by using our radio to guide them to mock incidents.

Sheringham Lifeboat
Service Launch
The Sheringham Lifeboat was launched at the request of Humber Coastguard on Thurs 1st August to go to the assistance of two young people on a Jet Ski which had broken down approx 1 mile off Water Lane West Runton. The tide was on the last of the flood with a 3 knot easterly wind generating a metre of swell. The father of the of the two young people padelled a Kayak out to to help and being unable to re-start the Jet Ski all three then decided to swim ashore. The Lifeboat arrived and collected all three, who were being taken away on the flood. The Lifeboat returned to the Jet Ski which by then was being blown a long way off; and towed both the Jet Ski and kayak back to West Runton beach where the casualties were handed over to the coastguard to be de-briefed. Fundamental Lesson Always stay with the craft. Helmsman: David Hagan Crewmen : J Crisp, P Pretty & K Webster.

No its not the imminent arrival of winter, its the theme for the new NOVA artworks are on the walls of the Priory Maze caf near Sheringham until September 1st. Far from being chilly, the shades of Blue in this new display will be more reflective of the sparkling sea and the shimmering sky of our coastal strip - with some quirky surprises too, including some lovely azure papier maiche bowls and delicate pale-turquoise ceramics. Exhibiting NOVA artists will be Ruth Brumby, Katrina Cole, Rainie Kay, Shane Mallett, Sarah Scott & Jackie Watson. Futher info from: 01263 820 942. For details of NOVA visit: www.artinnorfolk.co.uk

The picture above shows our stand at the Boat Day, with some of our volunteers. You probably know that we are open 365 days a year, 12 hours a day. We keep an eye on people and animals on the beach and the cliff. All types of shipping large and small is also monitored. Best wishes Adrian Frais
