WWI

Grandad Gowing was born in Lowestoft and was a canaries fan - after the First World War he settled in Guildford and had a family and that's
I moved to Norwich in 1995 with work and started to go to games (pay on the day) got a half season ticket when they pulled down the south stand and held one since - wasn't a canary until I moved here (but always had a soft spot)
