loads of peoploe made the trip to st.ives from norwich 75-80. jusrt wondering what happened to these peeps. frances, linda. keith etc if you can read this, un beso muy fuerte. big loud kiss!!

I think the Norwich crowd, and I think the two lads from Yarmouth were abducted by aliens! They just seemed to dissapear not long after the Norwich nighters run by Ken Cox.

p.s. who was it that had the white beetle, you know the one - he used to go out with the girl with dark curly hair.

linda is still alive, i think, she resurfaced at the 100 club, about 10 years back.

frances, not sure who you mean, was it linda's friend.

Keith who, keith dunhill.? if you mean him, he is still around and kicking.

but, yes, Norwich was a thriving northern scene back then and would travel at the drop of a hat, they had a close relationship with the cambridge crowd, this did break down for various reasons i won't go into.

My pal Kath Rose was from Norwich. We got back into the Northern scene out here in Australia. She just recently moved up to the Gold Coast, I'll see her this weekend at Billy's. She spoke about you Billy Whizz!

frances, cropped red hair, lovely smile, used to hang out with linda. we all went back to her gaff after a samson & delilah all-nighter, early 78. she cooked me egg bacon & sausage for breakfast. it didn't go down too well with the rest of the gang, all wasted & waiting for the pubs to open so they could 'kill off' the downer. I was going through a period of abstinence at the time. it didn't last long.

Hi Una,

When you see Kath say everyone from Norwich sez hello. She came to the one but last St. Ives anniversary when she was home.

A magnificent dancer, infact they dont get any better
