Norwich in GeneralNewest Review: ... My favourite beers were a bit head strong and you could certainly tell that you'd had them once finished. They weren't as strong as some other beers (well barley wines) that were available such as the Museum at 10.2%, Humpty Dumpty No. 10 at 9.2% and the strongest one of the festival Warthog at c. 13.5%. Whilst I did get to drink a half pint of the Humpty Dumpty No. 10 (I can't begin to ... more |

Ok, so as a proper Norfolk girl I'm SLIGHTLY biased here- but I genuinely believe that Naaaridge is an amazing city. I'm away from home living in Staffordshire for uni, and as much as I love it here, the main thing I miss is the accent! "Alright duck/ chuck/ shoog" (as in sugar) is a lovely greeting, but just doesn't compare with the Norfolk "Alroight moi daaaahlin?/ moi woman". Also, nobody knows what a bishybarnaby is, something which disturbed me greatly as I naturally assumed it was just standard English for ladybird! When I'm on the train home between Nottingham and Norwich, I never feel happier than when a load of proper ... Read the complete review

Norwich - Norfolk Norwich - full of carrot munching farmers ooh arr, with tractor exhibitions and combine harvesters. Is this your view of Norwich? Read on, and I hope to give you an insight into Norwich which will change your stereotypical opinion. I live in Norfolk, and Norwich is the capital of the county. It is a "Fine City" don't you know? Well at least that is what the signs tell you as you enter the outskirts of Norwich. Norwich is serviced by the A11, A47 and the A140 to name the major routes. As visitors to Norfolk will know much to their disdain, Norfolk doesn't have any motorways. Good for people who don't ... Read the complete review

INTRODUCTION Norwich is one of the biggest cities in East Anglia. Three hundred years ago, it was the largest provincial city in the country, and some still see it as the capital of East Anglia. It is situated in Norfolk, a county renowned for its scenic broads and unspoilt coastline. The city itself is served by several major roads, including the M11, A14, A12 and A140. The main city railway station is located to the south and is about 10 minutes walk from the main shopping area. Anglia Railways run services every 30 minutes from Norwich to London Liverpool Street, and Central Trains run services to Peterborough and the North (Liverpool Lime Street and ...

Now, from the title it sounds as if I'm not impressed with Norwich doesn't it? Well, that's not the case. However, saying that, I'm not the other way inclined either. When it comes to agreeing with the signs that greet you from at least three separate points around the city, I can't. Apparently 'Norwich is a fine city'. I have no reason to doubt this, but since I've lived here for the last 28 years, I've nothing to compare life here in 'Naarridge' with. I?m remaining impartial. You have to admit .... The football team is crap though. But as I neither watch, or like the game, it doesn't really matter does it? ... Read the complete review
