July = Manic Month!!

Everything’s happening in July, we’ve got a New Members Evening coming up on the 9th, and the we are into full on preparation for the second biggest event in the KL Plus Calendar, the Summer Party at Tottenhill. For the summer party, the theme is Red, White and Blue (yes we know its not exactly original, but we like it!), and we hope everyone will come dressed up in one or all of these colours! Read more…

Formal Stuff

Occasionally we have to take a break from having a laugh to do the serious official stuff, and this means the AGM was held and a new committee elected to serve for 2012.  I have updated the contacts page with the new info.  Also we recently had another programme planning evening, which means that we will shortly have a new programme to cover the next few months and I will upload it soon. Also coming Read more…

Happy New Year 2012

Another year gone, and the start of yet another new one! Fab NYE party at Dawn & Paul C’s, involving far too much food (yum), a touch too much drink, far too much sleep, and of course sherry trifle for breakfast for some of those who stayed over!!  Amazing how popular the mini casino was with the kids, particularly the roulette!  Also gobsmacked when Dawn P (who apparently has never played before) managed to almost Read more…

Weekend Mayhem

Well its been a bit quiet on here for a while, sorry about that, but we’ve been busier than ever doing stuff! Two weekends away in a row, both with perfect weather – who would have expected that this time of year? First we camped for the weekend at Banham Zoo, we didn’t visit the zoo but did go to Bressingham Steam Museum for the day – most of us hadn’t been before, and thoroughly Read more…

Palm Paper/Summer Party/Ideas

Next week’s meeting is programme planning time – this is where everyone gets a chance to suggest things they would like to do/see on the programme from July to October.  Some ideas already suggested are a guided town walk, a visit to Bressingham Steam Museum (possibly with camping) and a night at the Peterborough Greyhound Track. On 14th July, the night that we had planned to visit Palm Paper, we will now be having an Read more…

Boules!

…or Petanque to give it its posh name! The “TBA” on the programme for Tuesday 31st May is now an evening at Sandringham to play Petanque in the grounds, or any other outdoor games anyone might fancy.  To be followed by a few refreshments in a local pub, either the Feathers at Dersingham, or the Rose & Crown at Snettisham possibly. Earlier meeting time again, 7.30pm to make the most of the daylight.

Programme Change, and Town Trail

Firstly the Town Trail, pretty much a treasure hunt around town…minus the car! Meeting at 7.30 at the Crown & Mitre, much earlier than usual but we want to get most of the treasure hunt done in daylight – and time to socialise afterwards too. Now to the programme change…..Unfortunately Palm Paper aren’t keen on showing members of the public at the moment…so we are hoping to re-arrange this for some time in the future.  Read more…

Carry On Camping?

Hopefully this weekend will be less eventful that the Carry On film!  We are off to Kelling Heath in North Norfolk for a couple of nights – taking in the Cromer & Sheringham Crab & Lobster festival over the weekend too.  Most arrive Friday evening, and on Saturday its off to the station to catch a steam train on the “Poppy Line”, the North Norfolk Railway.  This will take us to and from Sheringham and Read more…
