The first one I went on to Caistor St Edmund and Norwich, organized by Bruce and Owen. Also met Jenni, Jonathan, Pete, Elaine (must email her) Owen’s other half, Michael and his daughter, Shirley and her (and Bruce’s) son. After walking around the Roman site, demolishing mole hills to find any artefacts, when Elaine found a tiny piece of pottery. Owen gave us a guided tour of Norwich Cathedral. We also visited the Dragon Hall.

That was five years ago, how quickly time passes.
