The Score
Truth is it was a win win situation.
Nine teams battled for supremacy and had a good night out.
Ken and Zoe from the Tuckswood chippy provided great food.
CTOB added £238 to our coffers
The fly in the ointment?
It was a team from the most erudite of church congregations that won again!
The Rev’d Canon John Minns will be cawing about it forever!
Receiving the Trophy
Twas ever thus!
Meet at the Lion Inn, Thurne
at 10.00 a.m.
(not at sunset when the photo was shot!)

Walk out across farmland towards Repps
and down the lane to the river,
then back along the riverside to Thurne windmill
and alongside the dyke to the Lion for lunch.

Another near certainty. Your web shepherd is booked to preside at the eucharist at Coltishall at 11 a.m. on Easter Day
The daffs in Hautbois Old Church are wonderful!
A warning -
Experience shows that Sunday by Sunday the information given on individual churches web sites is generally good. But over Holy Week and Easter do not always list the changes and additional services. To avoid disappointment please phone the individual church’s contact number.
The Ranworth Group of Churches Scheme is :
We meet at the Surlingham Ferry House at 10 a.m.

We meet at Weston Longville Church at 10 a.m. – not strictly Broadland but in the Broadland Council district! And then Woodfordes Ales are brewed in Woodbastwick! And afterwards for a shared lunch at a pub – which remains to be seen!
It was a great day the sun shone, the company was fun, the scenery spectacular -
