Born and Brought up in Norwich.....Knew the City backwards and didn't miss a match....

at Carrow Rd between 1973 and 1985, though didn't live in Norwich most of that time as moved away to Uni and subsequent work career was nowhere near E Anglia. In addition parents relocated to their ancestral home of the NW in mid 1980's so I had no real reason to return to the City.

Been back 3 times since '86. Once for a funeral and twice with other half and she prefers shopping to pub crawls. This trip was with two mates who had never been to the City who both like their beer (as do I). Hence a combination of sightseeing and alcohol. Ok...?

PS - Grew up in Hellesdon and first pet was a Cat called Smokey.
