Hello everyone. We’ve reached the end of 2022. The new year begins tomorrow, and may well already have started by the time many people read this. I want to thank everyone who has helped us during the year, whether by adding photographs or certificates, some extra details about their family, contribu...

Hello everyone. Happy New Month! Because I write my newsletter at the end of each month, it’s really easy to forget about holidays still three or four weeks away and fail to send best wishes to people with holidays three of four weeks hence. That’s exactly what I did last month. So I hope everyone i...

Wow. Thank you
I will send you my details

We finished on 198,379 people, just 1,621 short of the major milestone I’ve been talking about for a couple of mo...

July's activities Despite my outdoor interruptions we added over 1,400 people to our file this month, way above ou...

Hello everyone. Happy new month! Half the year gone already. Nights beginning to draw in slightly already, at least up here in the Northern part of the world! And it’s warmed up, finally. So no more moaning about the weather here in Norfolk! Howes that for business advice? I saw a very interesting a...

Happy new month, folks. The sailing season is finally under way and the temperatures in Norfolk are gradually rising, though it's still chilly. What I did last weekend and will be doing most weekends is sailing my yacht, Melinda. Last weekend was the famed Three Rivers Race, run from Horning Sailing...
