Cabin Fever

Suffering cabin fever a few of us (the Pork Pie Posse - Fourwings et al) are considering Norfolk next Saturday, unless someone can suggest a different venue. If anyone wants to sugest somewhere or fancies joining us let us know.

Re: Cabin Fever

Know what you mean. Somewhere by the sea would be good to blow the cobwebs away!

Re: Cabin Fever

I might come over to say hi to you guys. I cant go out and about with you as I cant do the distance but I can drive over to say hi. It does depend on how I feel on the day.
