NR27 9DS From The Editor With the Cromer Carnival behind us now and those lovely children all back at their school or college, it’s time to start our lives again. So what do we do? For most of us it is work as usual, doing what we enjoy, or in some cases not that much, to pay those household bills or are we planning to do something completely different in the future? As of Sept 14th I am off to the land of “the long white cloud”, New Zealand, to visit my old mum. In particular my thanks go to my good lady wife, Lis for putting Now aged 85 young, she’s in pretty the next issue together and also good condition, living by the sea managing the business, phone in Omokoroa in the North Island calls and the queries etc. etc. of NZ, about 100 plus miles while I am away.

We also have patients who because of their illness would not feel confident about being able to travel alone and for some they have not had a holiday for many years. The holiday has been made possible by lots of fundraising over the past couple of years, with a variety of raffles, fetes, stalls & very generous bequests, also fantastic donations Dear Phillip, Dear Phillip, from Sidestrand Church who held a fete & Well I must say judging by the feedback that I had to go into Trunch just before the Music Waitrose, North Walsham who chose us I have had, the Coastwatch “Fun-Day” really Festival, to a good customer of mine and I as one of their charities in June 2014.
