�ORTHWOLD YOUTH CLUB
CHRISTMAS TREE
DECORATIO�
Thank you to all the Clubs and Organi-
sations who have offered to decorate a
tree for the Festival.
The trees will be in Church at the begin-
ning of December. If possible, could
they be decorated by the 7th
�ORTHWOLD VILLAGE
HALL E�TERTAI�ME�T!!
The Keith Loades evening was a great
success with over £500 being raised
for the village hall!
�ow tickets are on sale for the Elvis
Christmas Show on Friday 14th De-
cember. (This is the same Elvis as 3-4
years ago so we know it will be good!)
Come and start your Christmas cele-
brations with the glitz and glamour of
one of the best nightclub entertainers!
The cost is £9 which includes food. A
licenced bar will sell wine and beer
including soft drinks. (Please do not
bring your own drinks as this is not
really in the spirit of the evening as
this is a fund raising event for the vil-
lage hall!) The night will start at
7.30pm prompt. Another 'sell out' is
expected so please phone Jackie
728571 or John 727018 for tickets as
soon as possible.
Christmas gifts and decorations. Another
session is being co-ordinated by other
award seekers and younger club members
– when it will be a “Girls pamper night;
Guys night in”, instead of the usual
Christmas party. The young helpers are also having a stall
at the James Bradfield School Christmas
Fete on 14th December from 3:15 pm. It
would be lovely if you could visit them at
the stall and support their activities. This is the ideal time to say thank you to
all the Helpers at the Youth Club, be-
cause without them the children would
not have enjoyed such a varied schedule
of activities. Their commitment to ex-
panding the children’s experiences and
opportunities in a safe and fun environ-
ment is really appreciated and should not
be underestimated. Thank you. Additionally, without the support of some
very kind benefactors the Youth Club
would not have been able to afford some
of the activities the children have en-
joyed. Once again, thank you. As reported in the last Village Life ,
Steve and I are standing down as Treas-
urer and Secretary of the Youth Club at
the end of 2012 and very much hope that
someone will step up to take the Club
forward. If anyone wishes to discuss
taking over the helm please contact us or
Jane Luckman who will happily answer
any of your questions. As you would
expect, new volunteers to the club are
subject to the usual checks including
CRBs and references.
And fi-
nally, the
winners
are …
Becca,
Emily,
Alice,
Hannah
and Max
who scored the highest points at the An-
nual Quiz Night – hosted by Ace Quiz-
master, Ann Howarth. Well done every-
one! Thank you to everyone for your support
over the past 7 ½ years and wishing you
all everything you would wish yourselves

...wishes all readers of “Village Life” a very merry Christmas and best wishes for
2013. It seems hard to believe that another year
has flown by, but when we heard about
all the activities we’d done during the
past year at our 7th Annual General Meet-
ing, it’s little wonder we feel the time has
whizzed past! The members are busy,
busy, busy (which can make it hard work
for us old ‘uns to keep up sometimes!) You will have seen some of our members
representing the Youth Club at the Re-
membrance Service and helping out at
the Church Bazaar in November - and
don’t forget to look out for the sign at the
Sports and Social Club that was designed
by Louis, one of our Young Helpers, as
part of his Norfolk Youth Award work. The Youth Club encourage their Junior
Helpers to participate in the Norfolk
Youth Awards which they run for the 13
– 15 year olds in the group. As part of
her Award, Becca will be co-ordinating a
club session called a “Liquorice Allsorts
evening”, when we will be put through
our “crafty” paces to create all sorts of

of a shoe and have created faces by adding
bits and piece s to the shoe. Here are some
images of a couple of the final faces! The
first is by Jack in Year 4 and the second by
Thomas in Year 3. Christmas will start in the next week or so in
school! Children will make another Big Crib
and decorate their classrooms. This year in a
bid to be more eco-friendly we will not be
having a Christmas Card delivery service but
each child will make a book and the adults
and children in the school will write their
Christmas greetings in these books. Obvi-
ously, our Christmas productions will begin
to take up our time as the children learn their
parts and create a fabulous experience for us
all. We are looking forward to our Carol
Service and the village Posada and Christmas
Tree services. Our year 4-6 children are continuing with
their blogs. They are writing about all kind
of interesting things. Do check out their writ-
ing by going to the blog via Madrid or New
York Classes pages on our website
www.norman-pri.norfolk.sch.uk. The chil-
dren would be delighted if you would post a
response to them, if you do please indicate
who you are as anonymous postings will not
be published. A couple of the year 6 have
written about their safari and one of our chil-
dren has started a novel after being given the
starting line, ‘The waves crashed against the
ragged rocks….’ , which we thought we
would post a little each month. We hope you
enjoy!
viola or cello. It is quite wonderful to see
their concentration and dedication to their
learning. As part of their lesson, they have
learnt some call and response songs which
two children led at our Celebration Assembly
last week, in front of a large group of par-
ents. It was quite something and very brave
of the callers. It has been busy for our Year 6, not only do
they have the puppet workshop today but
also they spent yesterday on safari at ‘Africa
Live!’ and had a brilliant time. They came
back full of tales of the animals and the
things they witnessed. I understand they
came across a Sulcata Tortoise and Royal
Python at Africa Live but they had also had a
visit in their classroom of these creatures too.
Mrs. Stocking, our veritable Dr Doolittle,
kindly brought some of her tortoises and
snakes in for the children to touch and learn
about. The Africa project is going down
well. Our Art Club has been running this term and
the children have been exploring ‘shoes’ in
as many different ways as they can. So far
they have drawn a shoe, printed with the sole
There is a poem called
‘No!’, which starts:
‘�o sun - no moon!
�o morn - no noon -
�o dawn - no dusk - no
proper time of day…’and ends with:
‘�ovember!’
As I write this piece it is difficult to see
across the Fendick Field because the fog is
down and it feels damp and dank. It still
amazes me how being in the country keeps
you in touch with the seasons with very
definite reminders from nature. We cer-
tainly are getting set up for winter. However, over lunchtime I spent time with
a group of children weeding our new Me-
morial bed which has got rather overgrown
as we wait for a particular set of plants to
arrive. It was lovely to see the enthusiasm
of the children as they pulled weeds up and
got rid of large stones. I must admit it was
great to be outside getting fresh air and
chatting with the children. Our day today
has been an exciting one with our morning
spent enjoying the Norwich Puppet Theatre
Company spinning the story of the Pied
Piper of Hamlin. The children thoroughly
enjoyed themselves and our older children
are spending the afternoon creating their
own puppets. I’m looking forward to seeing
the outcome of their efforts and the subse-
quent puppet shows they will produce. Our year 2 and 3 children have formed the
string section of the orchestra where each
child is learning to play either: the violin,

Dear Diary,
Yesterday I had the
most incredible experience. I went on my
first ever African safari.
I got there and I met my guide Mark. I
stepped onto the dusty land rover; I had a
mixture of emotions excited, nervous over all
I did not know what to expect.
We rounded the next corner, it was Ele-
phants, and I would say there were about 6 or
7 of them. I felt so privileged to see such a
sight it was fantastic! I saw a baby Elephant
bathing in a water hole. The little baby got a
bit stuck. But luckily the mummy Elephant
pulled her out. I was consecrating on the
Elephant skin. They look like they
have scaly skin. An Elephant came closer to
us it flapped its ginormous ears it made a
small gust of wind.
Then we moved on. It had a long neat with
neat splodges on its body. Its legs were long.
The animal was looking tall and proud, it
was also chewing leaves, and after eating a
patch of leaves it would stretch tall. This
creature is a Giraffe. I said” awesome”, but
Mark said “shhhh!”
We approached a field of Zebras.
Then the atmosphere changed. It went from
misty to sunny.
After we stopped for the last time ‘it’ was
laying in the water. ‘It’ was long there were
birds flying on to this thing. This animal
moved so all the birds flew away. This ani-
mal was a Hippo.
It came to the end of my tour I thanked Mark
for an unforgettable day.
By Eboni Year 6 Dear Diary,
Three days ago I went on a once in a life
time trip two South Africa, to see some terri-
fic, magnificent and marvellous animals. As I drove in my wonderful land rover, we
came across some humongous elephant.
Suddenly the elephant’s trunk swished up
into the air and spurted water everywhere. I
was surprised to see such a tremendous sight
out of my own eyes. After that we drove to
the other corner. As we got two the next corner the,
sunlight beamed through the trees like a
laser. As I looked towards the giraffes, I saw
a formidable giraffe that was as tall as a tree.
I stepped back in shock. All of a sudden
the giraffe was standing right next to me
right next to me. The giraffe just wanted
some love and attention. What a
great experiences that was!

The Boy with the Victim Tattoo Prologue
The waves crashed against the ragged rocks
as the lighthouse shone like a firefly. The
fisherman, on the other hand, lay back pon-
dering. Pondering when the last time the
sea went wild like horses stampeding.
Thunder boomed every time the waves hit
the shore. Almost as if a figure from the
underworld, had opened the creaky door of
the lighthouse and was slowly coming up
the windy staircase. The fisherman had
drifted off to sleep and being the old man
he was, groaned like an old door swing in
the wind. Without knowing what fate was
going to befall him as a misty outline of a
ship came into sight…. Chapter 1 Missing
Jamestown 28th October 1867
Our ship `The King George I` was docking
at Jamestown, where I was born. We had
been transporting spices and sugar round
the Caribbean and lastly Jamestown. Me
and some of the others went to the tavern,
(the rest went over to the merchant to trade
and John watched the ship with the cabin
boy). While we were there I spotted an old
fisherman, who looked stunned and puz-
zled. “The past has come back to us.” He
whittled “the past has come back. “Must’ve
had too much to drink.” whispered Jack
who was the navigator. Also John disap-
peared as I said earlier he was watching the
ship the cabin boy. The boy said he didn’t
know John’s whereabouts. Caribbean Sea 29th October 1867
Just left Jamestown and off to Port Royal to
collect the cargo which had to be sugar. I
hate sugar. Been staring at it for fifteen
years and I’m only twenty-five. I should
have stuck with piracy and hunting mer-
maids on blood rock than this. Our quarter-
master has gone missing today. Shouldn’t
be long till there’s mutiny. Maybe I should
jump ship?

Trading places with Jessica Ennis
Once upon a time, Jessica Ennis was running
in the Olympics. She won a bronze medal,
and everybody was amazed.
Back at school I picked up a weird bottle
And the next thing I knew I was Jessica En-
nis running in the Olympics, when all of a
sudden, I was awarded 2 gold medals.
(On the other hand Jessica, however I was
her!)
And the crowd burst with madness, but they
got a bit suspicious when I started eating
cupcakes, apparently Jessica hates those. But
then I turned into me and Jessica into her and
she started running again, and in the end it
was all back to normal. THE END!
Rosie Y4 Trading places
One day I was watching television, and I
went to change the channel to go good luck
Charlie so I went to press the button and then
POOF I was zooming through the TV. Then I saw the entire cast backstage, just then
I looked at myself in the mirror, and then I
realized that I had turned into teddy Duncan! Then the director called out that we were
shooting the road trip movie.
I followed someone who led me to a pretend
car for the movie,
I got in and we went to Palm Springs. We all went into the mountains.
I didn’t know what say so the director called
out CUT!
Then I got called to the office and the direc-
tor said I was fired.
I was very sad so I ran into the office and
shouted out SORRY,
So he said ok so I got my job back! That night I sat up in bed and thought how
am I going to get back to being myself again? The next day I got called into a meeting with
everybody else and he said that we all need to
up our game because we were going to be on
TV tomorrow and we were shooting it today. I thought that I would take a minute to watch
a bit of TV then out of nowhere I was travel-
ling back home!! In one minute I was home!!!
Who new that I could of just dome that in the
first place.

50 that night. Maybe we’ll go away next year! But then, entertaining is what we do. It is often thought that the tradition has de-veloped in the UK from an American cus-tom. Not so! Read on... In North America, trick or treat has been a customary Hallowe’en tradition since at least the early 1950s. Homeowners wishing to participate in it sometimes decorate their private entrances with artificial spider webs, plastic skeletons and jack-o-lanterns. Some rather reluctant homeowners would simply leave the candy sweets) in bowls on the porch, others might be more participative and would even ask an effort from the children in order to provide them with candy. In the more recent years, however, the practice has spread to almost any house within a neighbourhood being visited by children. The tradition of going from door to door receiving food already existed in Great Brit-ain and Ireland in the form of "souling", where children and poor people would sing and say prayers for the dead in return for cakes.[1] Guising—children disguised in cos-tumes going from door to door for food and coins—also predates trick or treat, and is recorded in Scotland at Hallowe’en in 1895, where masqueraders in disguise carrying lanterns made out of scooped out turnips, visit homes to be rewarded with cakes, fruit and money.[2] While going from door to door in disguise has remained popular among Scots and Irish, the North American custom of saying "trick or treat" has recently become common. The activity is prevalent in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, and many other coun-tries. More information can be found on the inter-
net. This article sourced from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick-or-treating
Mike & Brigette
‘Trick-or-treating’ or ‘Guising’, is a customary practice for children on Hallowe’en in many countries. Children in costumes travel from house to house in order to ask for treats such as candy (or, in some cultures, money) with the question "Trick or treat?". The "trick" is a (usually idle) threat to perform mischief on the home-owners or their property if no treat is given. Some of you may remember or been the victims of ‘egging’, usu-ally of our houses, win-dows etc. Thankfully, much of this has died out. Nevertheless local children, often accompa-nied by their parents, wandered round the village on 31 October seeking goodies from good hearted householders. We were one of those house-holds, although a bit OTT this year. We had sound effects, skeletal curtains, cobwebs with spiders, UV light and lightening flashes, all to help create the atmosphere often por-trayed in films. Rather than deterring trick or
treaters, we seemed to be busy from 6.00pm through til nearly 8.00pm. Many of our visitors forgot why they were there, except of course to
get a sweet, and had to be prompted to ask the question. We reckon we must have seen

Bottle Bank & Recreation Field While many of those who live here in North-
wold will view the removal of the bottle
bank service from our village as an incon-
venience, I’d like to thank Borough Council-
ors Anthony White and Brian Long, our
Parrish Council Chairwoman Rosemary
Crisp, and Mike Howarth and John Burton
from the Village Hall Committee for making
it happen. Life will be a lot quieter without
the constant sound of breaking glass.
Steve Stark I suppose nothing should surprise you these
days, the government have been urging peo-
ple to re cycle as much as possible, and what
happens the bottle bank has been removed.
has it not been taken into consideration
there are people in Northwold that don't
drive therefore have no means of getting to
the recycling stations or supermarkets. An-
other thing, what about the price of petrol. I
can see it happening where the village will
be littered with broken glass, for children and
animals to cut themselves, why couldn't the
bottle banks have been sited elsewhere in the
village. And as for the recreation field, this is an
absolute disgrace, where can the children go
to have a good run about without parents
worrying that they could fall and injure
themselves turning their ankles in the holes.
Our football team have had to find another
pitch to play on so this in turn is affecting the
Sports & Social Club as they are not using
the facilities. I'm sure there are others families that are
concerned, what on earth is happening to
Northwold.

The meeting was briefly suspended to allow
an update from the Chairman of CA�
• An Extraordinary General Meeting of
CAN has been booked to be held at
Northwold Sports & Social Club on
October 25th at 7.30pm. It was noted
that although However, it was noted no
acknowledgement has been received
from Northwold Sports and Social re-
garding use of the building.
5.4 Manor House
• It was noted compulsory purchase of the
Manor House is progressing. A notice
to that effect has been posted on the
gate of the property.
6. Sports & Social Club agreement
Dealt with under item 5.
OPE� FORUM
• Mr. A Jenkinson has received some
response via the CAN website to his
petition for a reduction in the speed
limit on the A134 through Northwold
between Pooley Farm and the Priory
School. Mr Jenkinson is set to under-
take a door to door campaign to hope-
fully get more signatures for his peti-
tion.
• It was noted that the picture placed on
the back of the notice board at Whit-
tington looks good.
• Comment was made that there are not
enough street lights along School Lane.
There are currently four light posts
along School Lane. This matter has
been raised before and it was decided
that the cost to provide further lights
would be too great. More lights are not
generally favoured at the present time
and it is more usual for lights to be cut.
However, an up to date quote for the
provision of extra lighting will be
sought as a guide for possible future
consideration.
• Mr. A Jenkinson expanded on the plans
to treat the chafer bugs. He reported that
treatment would be needed over three
years at a cost of around £1500 for the
chemical. Volunteers have offered to

enquiries will be made regarding engag-
ing a local tradesman to cement the
seats in place. Three dog waste bins will
be ordered once someone has been
found to fit the bins in place.
• The Chairman has again requested an
invoice from the Village Hall for use of
the hall for Parish Council meetings for
the year.
• A further letter has been received from
Northwold Sports & Social Club re-
garding the proposed lease for use of
the building at the Playing Field. The
Club has offered to meet members of
the Parish Council to try to sort out
differences between the two parties
which need to be sorted out before the
agreement is signed. It was agreed to
meet at the Social Club on October 15th
at 7.30pm. It will be requested that at
least 50% of the Sports & Social Club
Committee attend the meeting to ensure
any decisions are agreed by a majority.
It would also be expected that the
Chairman, Vice-Chairman, Secretary
and Treasurer of the Sports & Social
Club would attend the meeting. Concern
was voiced regarding the number of non
Northwold residents who should sit on
the Sports & Social Club Committee.
• Northwold Cricket Club and Northwold
Football Club are prepared to undertake
work to treat the chafer bugs at the Rec-
reation Ground. They have requested
financial assistance of £700 from the
Parish Council. It was agreed the Parish
Council would be minded to favourably
consider this contribution but would
need to know the total cost of treatment
and for the agreement with the Sports &
Social Club to be settled before any
grant would be made. 5.2 The Clerk’s Report
• The Highways Rangers will be visiting

04/09/12 were agreed as a true record. 4. Matters arising from previous meet-
ings:
• Concern was raised that no mainte-
nance seems to be undertaken on the
bridge along Common Drove. It is
believed this is the responsibility of
the Highway Department.
• Mrs. S Leet has offered to donate
trees to be planted at the Primary
School to commemorate the Queens
Diamond Jubilee. The Chairman will
liaise with the school regarding the
planting of around 10 to 15 small
ornamental trees.
• Gravel has been purchased using
income from Constables Charity
which residents of Little London
Lane have used to repair pot holes in
the lane. 5. Reports

BOWLS 100 CLUB As the light increased a large flight of geese
circled the river with great noise. Then an-
other wave of even more geese followed and
added to the commotion. With one accord
they all landed and ploughed up the water
sending out giant waves upsetting the fisher-
man's floats. Quickly the river returned to
calm but one float continued its movement
before finally disappearing and signalled that
mister pike was feeding. A rod bent and with
care the pike was played out, removed and
quickly returned. The break of day had been
the trigger and it was getting better and bet-
ter! So everything continued. The geese re-
mained in station all day and at intervals
contested each other with chasing and high
pitched nonsense. The rabbit warren over-
looking the river had its residents out scam-
pering here and there. A solitary heron
perched on the very top of her tree and just
watched. Within the river there was very
little action. The summer shoals of roach
and bream had long ago moved to warmer
and deeper waters. Although the pike had
had a feeding spree all had now returned to a
state of lethargy. The sedge waved in the
slight wind and an overall peace and laziness
ruled! The clock ticked away. A full moon had
been keeping watch all afternoon and now
glowed as darkness arrived. It was still long
before the call of teatime but the ghostly
shape of a barn owl glided across the river
and away into the trees. There was a definite
dampness in the air. Perhaps it would rain
again but then it sleeted and then it snowed.
It was the first snow of the season. All
around the picture changed to white. Shapes
became indistinct. Sky blended with the
ground. Trees and bushes laboured under the
weight of snow. Sometimes it eased but then
it resumed again. There was no real thought
of it stopping. Evening arrived with the new advent and in a
nearby church the multi-colours of a stained
glass window showed as a cheerful contrast
to the white. A congregation sang 'Oh Come
All Ye Faithful' and the strains drifted across
the fields towards the river. A robin red-
breast outside the church porch stood mes-
merised and cocked his head to one side.
Perhaps he was bemused by the snow or
maybe he was listening to the joyful singing.
It was certainly different to normal! Unbeknown to the robin it was Christmas
Eve and all was well!!

CHRISTMAS RIVERWATCH
Long nights and short days rule. Today any
sign of light was a long while coming but its
reluctance was understandable. A heavy
overnight frost glistened and the air had an
icy nip. Snow had been forecast all week but
nothing had happened. There had been a
brief spell of sunshine the previous day so
any thought of severe weather had been for-
gotten. Then it all began. Far away across the fields
and peeping over the silhouetted tree line
appeared a glow. A suggestion of red grew
and grew. Within minutes bright streaks of
yellow slashed the red and the sky showed a
wonderful sunrise. Instantly there was a
sense of well-being as the bright colours
spread a definite happiness. The drudge of
shadows and gloom had been replaced by a
new mood. Perhaps today would be a day of
change! A solitary fisherman sat in the reed beds.
They were tall and spent providing an ideal
shelter. Pike rods were already out and the
red floats bobbed away over the far side of
the river. As always the river Wissey ran its
course and was noticeably high following
many days of rain. Much of the bank had
collapsed with force of the excess water and
could no longer contain the river. A field was
badly flooded and repair work was now ur-
gent.

appear after the War, shortly followed by a
tin of biscuits (sugar icing and decorated
with white stick men) sent by a relative in
Canada. From the age of 5, I walked 2 miles to and
from school, rode my roller skates for
miles on end and tore down hills on a
“trolley” made from old pram wheels, 3
planks of wood and a length of rope. The
sophisticated models I made later on had
brakes and battery-powered lights. We had
outside dens and would play by the river
for hours, looking for Liverwort, etc. The
only time I remember being in trouble was
when my friend and I had been at the river
so long that my father sent the police as he
could not find us. From the age of 13, I
would go off on my bike for a week or
more at a time, touring North Wales or the
Lake District and staying in Youth Hos-
tels. No cycle helmets in those days! The immediate post-war years were very
healthy as food was so limited. I remember
vividly my mother's excitement at the first
banana to appear after the War, shortly
followed by a tin of biscuits (sugar icing
and decorated with white stick men) sent
by a relative in Canada. I spent my entire formative years in my
school uniform. I even have pictures of
myself on a family holiday when I was
about 7 – I am on the beach, fashioning a
speedboat in the sand, and wearing my
school blazer and cap! The alternative was
the woollen knitted swimming trunks
which kept falling down when they got
WHAT DOES THE DOCTOR
THI�K THIS MO�TH?
Some days do not start well. Last week,
after a poor night's sleep, I cleaned my
teeth with shaving cream, lathered my face
with toothpaste (well, the tube do look
similar) and finished by spraying under my
arms with an old aerosol of shaving foam
that I had been keeping in my cabinet for a
rainy day. That is the sort of start which
makes me anxious about using the motor
car! I suppose that it is just confirmation
that the birth certificate is “wearing out”
and it started me reminiscing about the
changes which have taken place since I
was born at the end of the War. Given the
knowledge which we now possess, how on
earth did we survive? Some of us were born to mothers who
believed the advertisements that smoking
was good for you and liked a drink. They
ate soft cheese, bread and dripping, raw
egg products and lots of bacon and proc-
essed meat, when they were available (I
was always told that the name “Spam” was
the acronym for Specially Prepared Artifi-
cial Meat but I suspect my leg was being
pulled). Having survived the birth, we
were stored in cots painted with lead-
containing paints and given toys similarly
painted. I grew up replete with tablespoon-
fuls of malt and caster oil. The immediate
post-war years were very healthy as food
was so limited. I remember vividly my
mother's excitement at the first banana to
wet. Wagon Wheels were enormous and
the penny tray in the newsagent was a
source of wonderment – Black Jacks 4 for
a penny, Aniseed balls the same, Traffic
lights 2 for a penny and Gob Stoppers a
penny each. For the young readers, two
and a half of those pennies became one
new penny at decimalisation. Life was quite competitive and we often
had to deal with disappointment. We had
Houses at school and the athletics inter-
house competitions used to horrible. I was
a good sprinter but I was useless at the
440, the 880 and cross-country. Teachers
would hit us with slippers, the side of a
ruler (really painful) or, worse, the cane
and they would throw the blackboard rub-
ber at us. Our parents taught us to be polite
(I was once severely berated for continu-
ing to suck a lolly while talking to a friend
of my father), gave us a good education
and backed the teacher up if there was a
problem. All in all, the circumstances were such that
we could have freedom to roam, had an
enormous amount of exercise, and learned
how to deal with success and failure. All this has reminded me of one of my
favourite authors, Gervaise Phinn, who
was a school inspector in Yorkshire many
years ago and has written entertainingly on
the subject. I read in one of his books the
other night that Rotherham, his home
town, does not have a twin town. Rather,
according to Gervaise, it has a suicide pact
with Scunthorpe. In those days, mad dogs
were put to sleep; he reminded me of an-
other old Chick Murray joke – a man told
his friend that he was going to have his
dog put down. “Is it mad?” asked the
friend - “Well, he's not exactly happy
about it”. It works equally well when the

their son and daughter to fly home for
Christmas but funds became tight so, in
November, the father rang his son and
told him that he was leaving his wife
because he had had enough; it was

DOG FOULI�G We seem to be having BIG problems
again with people allowing their dogs to
foul on the footpaths and walking away
without cleaning /picking it up. Once again PLEASE think of other peo-

are going, it is really bad near to the

The month of November always sees the
Northwold WI celebrate its birthday and
this year twenty seven members gathered
at The Chequers in Feltwell at 1900 on
Tuesday 13 November. To minimise our
carbon footprint appropriate car sharing
had been arranged and apart from one car
attempting to reach Feltwell via the
Wissington Beet Factory it all went well.
(In my defense, I normally go the other
way to Feltwell and I did realise I had
gone wrong within a few hundred yards.)
Once inside we admired various outfits –
including Doreen’s very smart turquoise
killer heels! Our tables had been laid out
in the conservatory and, once liquid re-
freshments had been purchased, we settled
ourselves down. Fortunately we are a
friendly group as the seating was a little on
the snug side – but it did ensure that we
didn’t get cold. Our waitress worked hard to serve the
right meals to the right people as quickly
as possible; Hillary had the brilliant idea
of giving everyone a little card with their
pre-ordered choices so the whole process
went a lot easier than some that I have
seen. Over the meal conversations flowed
freely as it was a rare opportunity to dis-
cover more about our fellow members and
everyone enjoyed themselves. Brenda proposed a toast to our WI and
