Norfolk Suffolk Cambridge anyone?
« on: March 08, 2007, 19:48:43 »
Just wondering if there's anyone from Norfolk Suffolk or Cambridge on these forums. Have seen plenty of peeps from up north, but don't recall seeing anyone from east anglia. (No norfolk farmer jokes please!!!)

There's several of us in Norfolk KNBS & believe it or not we can all read & write though personally I've never driven a tractor - can't speak for the others!

I can drive a tractor, set out and plough a field (without a reversible plough) and ride a bike (50 miles a day).

When did you last see a farmer on a bike?, in the 1960's, a local farmer used to cycle to the phone box in the village to make his phone calls.

Ah,, it seems that are are a few of us about then! Excellent - glad to know I'm not the only one! Phew! Although I doubt there is anyone from Kings Lynn! Boo hoo, I'm all alone!

There's at least a dozen regulars from somewhere in Cambridgeshire. I think Lorna is probably closest to Kings Lynn, though?

I used to be able to plough, harrow and calibrate a seed drill - haven't always been a Londoner ;)

Haven't got an allotment, just my garden but Ceratonia is probably right about me being one of the nearest to Kings Lynn.    March, Cambs. Another lady nearby but will let her introduce herself. Happy gardening.
Lorna.
