Went for a ride round norfolk yesterday, one of my stops on the coast road at a nowhere place called Walcott. Only stopped because it was hot and I spotted an ice cream van.

A great day out.

It's just south of Bacton where the gas comes in. I was last there as a kid about 45 years ago. It hasn't changed much.

Question: can you still buy fresh brown, or even pink, shrimps where you live. I used to buy them regularly at seafood stalls, but don't see them anymore. And when I do they're crazy expensive.

You still got the Guzzi? I'd assume there were more miles on that then?
