Well one is at least. Yesterday, Hugh Jackman was voted the sexiest man ALIVE by People magazine. The Hollywood actor is also Norwich fan! Nice one Hugh. So how did this happen? Isn't Hugh an Aussie? Yes, indeed he is, but it turns out that his mother is from Norfolk and Hugh is a follower of the super Canaries. What a turn up for the books. Norwich supporting celebrities are usually dull, C-list AND...

On Saturday Clio, Chris, Em, Jamie, John, Malcolm, Neil, Tim and I all went off to Norwich to race in the Norfolk Sculls head. At 4600m, the main course is one of the longest in our area, and there are plenty of tricky corners and willow trees for scullers to steer round along the way. There is also a shorter course for juniors and novices. I had the pleasure of spectating on the bank for the first...

It is important to maintain the dignity of a library whatever...

Had a pretty full weekend, preaching four times up in Norfolk. I have hardly been to that county before so most of the people I met were new to me. As you enter Norfolk it reminds you this is Nelson's county. As for Norwich I knew they had a football team but not that the cathedral spire is England's second tallest. Since returning this rhyme learned as a child has risen to the surface The man in the...

Due to the unfortunate cancellation of both fixtures to be held at our North Pickenham Road ground, it was decided to hold a 'pitch-up and play' session this afternoon. This resulted in 20 girls arriving from Wymondham, Holt, Norwich, Ely and Swaffham with many more unable to attend due to the lateness of the change of plans. This is yet another indication of how girls rugby has grown in the area,...
