    Kilted in Norfolk




    An English County in which I had never previously worn a kilt.
    Only my second visit to Norfolk (my last was in 1973, long before I ever wore a kilt).
    The purpose of my trip was to collect some passengers from Great Yarmouth and bring them home to Scotland at the end of their holiday. Too brief a visit to enable a kiltmeet with Norfolk based xmarkers. However I did manage to achieve these three photos, the first at Cromer and the other two at Holt.

    Ahhhh Great Yarmouth, that's where my grandfather lived till he passed several years ago... I, myself, was born in Suffolk...

    Thanks for the pics Alex.... and thanks for putting a smile on my face whilst I had a few good thoughts about my grandfather, Gerald Farmer..

    Hmm, when I saw Norfolk, my mind went instantly to our Norfolk, VA here in the states. That is one place I hope to never be stationed. Anyway, nice pics and your Norfolk looks like a beautiful area!
