In one case the wheels really did come off! 2Norfolk NA7ter News The Winners Tricia’s Wendy Wagon Dave’s Racer The story behind the Wendy Wagon – Tricia Rix explains... My dear friend Wendy, suffering from cancer, heard about our Rubber Band Racing and suggested that we enter a Mini pickup truck. She said “I bet nobody will think of a pick-up!” Wendy was a bit of a petrol head and has an early classic mini. Dave decided it would be modelled on the Chummy, be a pick up and painted the same colour as Wendy's mini – hence the Wendy Wagon.,WENDY 1 I last saw her to speak to on Thursday. Sadly she was unable to see the completed vehicle, but her husband, Michael, was thrilled to bits with it and said he hoped we would win with it! I told him it wouldn't be on the performance regarding distance, but perhaps the looks might help! Sadly, Wendy passed away on the morning following Rubber Band Racing. WENDY 1 has now taken pride of place on my display cabinet, unless in a week or so Michael decides he would like it in her memory. Wendy loved old vehicles and Michael’s collection of vintage motor bikes....I will miss her so much.

  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.

  • The Pastons and Their Norfolk by R H BRITNELL Abstract the Paston Letters Have Two Distinctive Features As Sources of Agricultural History
    The Pastons And Their Norfolk By R H BRITNELL Abstract The Paston Letters have two distinctive features as sources of agricultural history. On the one hand they illustrate exceptionally well some organizational features of estate management on a smallish estate, notably the absence of closely structured specialization amongst estate officers and the personal involvement of members of the family in minor,matters. At the same time the letters demonstrate the problems of estate management in one of England s most commercialized regions during the I46os and r47os, and they suggest that the x46os in particular were a period of agrarian depression in Norfolk.
