    The Mundesley Soap Box DerbyBecause Lis & I were away in France on Saturday 13th June when the Soap, we missed this amazing event which had not been held for over ten years.However we were delighted to see these photos from Paul Damen and Eduardo Garcia on our return.

    With Mundesley High Street closed to traffic, crowds of people were there, ready to watch the races which started at 1pm.

    Soap Boxes of all makes, shapes & sizes took part with about thirty competitors taking part in the event, many of whom were wearing fancy dress.

    Prizes of first, second and third place were awarded in the different age sections and for best soap box in the various races.

    Over the past two weeks the weatherhas at times been wonderfully warmthen incredibly cold for the time of year, but night after night we have been treated to some absolutely stunning sunsets. I wish I could take even a half decent photo to capture all the fabulous colours.The beginning of summer brings out all the mad English ideas and none more so then the revival of the splendid Soap Box Derby in Mundesley on the 13th June.Thanks so much to Paul Damen &Eduardo Garcia for providing us with the photographs on the front page and page six. Irrespective that there was a drop or two of rain during the afternoon, you can see from the photos that everyone had a great time, either watching the races or taking part, plus 1000 was raised for the First Responders. The organisers, the Scout group of Mundesley, should take a well earned pat on their backs, plus

    thanks to all who came and spent while supporting the competitors.We are all hoping for another Soap Box Derby in Mundesley next year. As usual loads of Special Events coming up this Summer, see pages 17 & 18 of this issue.

    Dear Liz,Do I win a prize for spotting a deliberate mistake (possibly not deliberate) !!!29th May - 11th June 2015. ISSUE 062.12th - 25th June 2015. ISSUE 062.Shouldnt there be an ISSUE 063?Regards,Janet.From Lis KeddellMy mistake entirely, even though three of us didthe proofreading before the paper went to the printers.....no-one spotted it! My only excuse isthat apart from getting ready to go off to Franceas soon as I had finished, the computer decided to close down numerous times in the middle of my typesetting. I must also apologise to Cindy Johnson for leaving her name out of the thanks for her review of Copacabana. Sorry!

    Letters Continued From Page 3Dear Editor,Thorpe Market Church History ProjectWhen there are events at St Margarets Church we are constantly approached by visitors who delight in telling us that they were married at the church and in preparation for a future local history day, we would like to be able to have a display of Weddings through the years. If any of your Crab Tales readers have such an affinity with our village church PLEASE encourage them to contact us on:[email protected] modern technology there is no need for anyone to part with cherished family memories, a simple scan is all that is needed. Early 20th century, or who knows, even late19th century would be a wonderful discovery. All the wedding registers are held at the CountyRecords Office so we have access to details of all the weddings, even pre-dating photographs.We have even had mention of wedding dresses still lurking in attics. Any reminiscences, anecdotes and especially pictures would be very welcomed. This will be quite a big project and if there is anyone with family connections who would like to be part of collating and preparing material for display, please do contact us.Margaret Hunter

    Dear Editor.I note that Mr H. Mouse is at it again (issue 062)- hes quite an old mouse you know so I suggesthe dusts off his bus pass and takes a trip on thebus with the blacked out windows - he will certainly NOT be able to enjoy our beautiful Norfolk countryside and hes bound to end up with a headache. Talking of buses - just lately there have been quitea few disgruntled passengers - mainly because Sanders Coaches dont seem to be keeping to their end of the bargain - i.e. they just dont turn up, leaving passengers stranded with no information whatsoever.Moreover it appears theres nothing we can do - we really are the poor relations where travel is concerned.Janet Munro, Mundesley-On-Sea.

    The Crab Tales recently received the letter below and forwarded it on before printing.Dear Editor,I read your magazine regularly & would like to bring to the attention of all readers on the back page, which shows the full page Sandy Gulls Caravan Park advert in the bottom right hand corner The David Bellamy Gold Conservation Award presented to the caravan park.I would like it to be known to all readers that despite this wonderful award they received I would like to ask why the caravan site constantly allow all types of rubbish to be thrown over the cliff behind their site.This would also include the 2 recent heaps of stone chippings they left on the cliff top after their entrance roads were resurfaced which had to be cleared away by NNDCI am sure they must be proud of their award particularly in view of the way they allow the cliff top to be treated behind their site which resembles a rubbish dump.It is a complete disgrace that makes a mockery of such an award from a great conservationist such as David Bellamy.Yours Faithfully,Julian Mintz, Historian

    Dear Editor, This years Crab & Lobster Festival was a supersmashing success, magically supported by superbsunny weather! The opening concert at the PierPavilion Theatre was played to a packed house.The entertainment offered something for everyone Pat Nearney, Marlenes Dancers, My Bad Sister, Backdrafts and The Sheringham Shantymen.The weekend continued in Cromer - top chefswith seafood dishes, market stalls, live music,crab sandwiches, Punch & Judy, giant fishtank, heritage demos, crab dressing & entertainment.In Sheringham the village fete atmosphere attracted the crowds with local chefs, ethnic foods, crab dressing demonstrations, morris dancers, street entertainers, beer, bees, sheep, music, boats, coastguards, Shantymen - and Razz the Clown entertained in both towns! On Sunday charity walkers & Cromer Walkers are Welcome linked the towns, and there was a new Crazy Crab Competition from the Pier.Record crowds enjoyed the weekend and localaccommodation was booked up weeks in advance. The best news of all... dates for next years festival are 21st-22nd May 2016.Siri Taylor

    Dear Liz,My Pilates class takes place every Monday at 10am at East Runton Community Hall. I hope to reach the local people and holiday makers by offering a gentle class that is suitable for all ages and all abilities. As Dr Angela Hallatt said in your last issue Exercise leads to healthier & longer lives and lowers the risk of chronic disease. Pilates is mainly mat based so no high aerobic or intensity exercises, people can work at their own pace and rest as much as they need to. The community is very friendly and the group work very well together. Classes cost 4 per session and are suitable for all ages, abilities and to both men and women. I have been a Fully Qualified Instructor since 2002.Please contact me on: 01263 588 935Or Mobile: 07900 733 832Many thanks. Teresa Harman

    Response from Sandy Gulls: Thank you Liz for giving us the opportunity to reply to Mr Mintz letter. Kind Regards, Sam. Dear Mr Mintz,Thank you for your letter to the Crab Tales mentioning the rubbish over and on the Cliff Tops of Sandy Gulls.As a long established family run business of 35years plus, we pride ourselves in the environmentwe provide for our customers, we have over the

    years worked towards achieving our Gold DavidBellamy award which we are very proud of and gained and have maintained since 2011. We have a park policy to recycle all the waste produced on the site and advisory information is given to all visitors and caravan owners as to the recycling and disposing of their waste. Recently we had the site road resurfaced and areaware that the contractors stored temporarily theStone Chippings & Turf on the cliff top behindour main site which we are entitled to do on our own private land - this was removed by them(not NNDC as you wrote) as soon as convenientfor the contractors. The grass and wild flowers are now flourishing in the area.We are also aware that none biodegradable itemshave been dumped over the cliff and in conjunc-tion with NNDC have put up signs in an effort to stop this re-occurring. We also have a huge problem with Dog mess & plastic bags being thrown over the Cliff edge & Cliff Top which again we monitor and clear up where we can. The Cliff top path is privately owned by Sandy Gulls, we have always maintained the path for our customers and ramblers to use. We are now proud to be a part of the coastal path. Therefore unable to stop access to the particular part mentioned by you in your letter. We thank you for your concern & would welcomea helpful friendly discussion with yourself as to what else you believe we can undertake to stop the dumping of permanent waste on & over the cliff. Could you please contact us direct on:01263 720 513 or visit reception between 9am & 12 noon where we will happily welcome your thoughts and ideas. Kind RegardsSamantha (Park Manager)

    Dear Editor,Since 20061 have been assisting a teacher of a Polish High School to bring a small group of her pupils to Cromer each July for a 2 week summer holiday. The purpose of the visit is twofold, to enable the students to have a holiday by the sea and to practice their spoken English.The sad news is that in 2015 the pattern has been broken and no students will be enjoying our hospitality and improving their language skills this year.

    The reason the visit has had to be cancelled this summer is simple. Not enough host families !The teenage students are normally accommodatedwith families in Cromer and a payment is made to the host family to cover their costs. There is a programme of instruction for studentsand on weekdays they are fully occupied from 9am until teatime each day. Hosts do not need to have any knowledge of the Polish language.The Polish teacher concerned, Mrs. M. Strazla, is visiting Cromer in early July to try & recruit some additional hosts to ensure that in 2016 the Course may continue. She will personally be available to speak to anyone interested in becoming a host. In the meantime, although I am not now directlyinvolved with the organization, should you wishto know more about this project I would be morethan happy to explain things more fully. I can be contacted on 01263 512 692. Thank you.Yours sincerely,Frank ChesterfieldCromer

    History TalesThorpe Market & Lord SuffieldThe King Of ThorpeIn 1841 the noted gardener & nurseryman JamesGrigor toured Norfolk recording the fine estates, gardens and trees he visited. One of his favouritetrees was an oak in Thorpe Market which excitedhis wonder and astonishment and which he described as the oak of the county. It is altogether a wonderful tree. It soars to a height of about 70 feet, it has a trunk 42 feet in length, its circumference being 21feet, 6 inches. A party who visited it lately, consisting of four ladies and two gentlemen, with hands joined, could with difficulty clasp the trunk.The tree was situated on Lord Suffields GuntonPark Estate, near to Mr Days garden. Mr Grigor said that it was impossible to look uponthe tree without emotion. Surrounded as it is bylofty trees of various character, it rises to a greatheight above everything else of the vegetable kindin the neighbourhood, and claims the proud distinction of being the king and chief of all. The oak reveals the perfect appearances of thespecies ... well was the foliage of such a tree chosen by them as the symbol of the highest dream of nobility, of imperial authority, and civic distinction .

    Proudly rearing itself above all the pigmy tribesthat are about it, it has become to the villagers anobject upon which they look with veneration andawe, their children know it, and run eagerly andproudly to show it to us: by them it is very appropriately called the Great Oak, the King of Thorpe.

    Crime And Punishment In January, 1805 a murderous poaching affray occurred in Thorpe Wood, near Aylsham, whenseveral game watchers, in the service of Lord

    Suffield, were severely wounded. At the NorfolkAssizes, six of the poachers, were found guiltyand sentenced to death. Lord Suffield pleaded that their lives might be spared and the sentencewas reduced to transportation. When the gang was being conveyed by coach from Norwich to Portsmouth, the convicts got free from their chains and made a desperate attempt to escape, but they were too heavily ironed. They attacked the coachman, and one of the guards presented a pistol, which missed fire; Johnson, the gaoler, rushed amongst them with a cutlass, and subdued them.

    St. Margarets ChurchIn 1796 Lord Suffield demolished the crumblingchurch at Thorpe Market and replaced it with the present building. The new parish church has inspired much comment ever since. A visitor in 1819 criticised the stained glass inthe church; which instead of being concentratedin such a manner as to throw devotional gloom into the church ..... is scattered and in greens, purple, reds and yellows, giving to the whole an appearance of too much gaiety.

    Book ChoiceThe Buddha in the Attic by Julie Otsuka

    Review by Mrs Rita Reid of a recent book read by Sidestrand Book Group. This book is a remark-able account largely unknown to Europeans,of a period of history from the early 1900s to the middle of the Second World War. It is not a novel in

    the true sense, but, but more of a documetary based on the collective memories of Japanese women who, unable to find husbands in their own country, were driven to embark ona hazardous journey to California. In dreadful conditions they set out, clutching outof date photographs provided by unscrupulous marriage brokers, of future husbands (Japanesemen who had already emigrated to to the U.S.A.) Unfortunately many of these photos bore little orno resemblance to the men. Instead of having well established jobs many of these men were expecting their wives to work in hot dusty fields or as domestic sevants to American women.It is unbearably sad to think of the plight of thesewomen who had eagerly been looking forward to a bright new future..... Unable to speak the language, they were isolated for most of their lives, whereas their children soon became integrated in school and made local friends.The disgrace of being an unmarried woman inJapan would appear to outweigh the disadvantagesof a life of drudgery in California. Having been cruelly deceived on their arrival & realizing thatthere was no escape from their bleak future, the wives wrote glowing letters to their parents backin Japan, saying how happy they were - too proud to admit the truth .Their unhappiness continued when Pearl Harbourbrought America into the Second world War. All Japanese nationals were regarded as possibleenemies and whole families living on the westernseaboard were uprooted overnight and transportedto camps hundreds of miles away from the coast, where they were interned as prisoners. Recently the American Government has offered an apology for the way in which they treated these Japsnese families.

    An Old Geezer... ....who had been retired for a long time, became very bored and decided to open a medical clinic.

    He put a sign up that said:

    Dr. Geezers Clinic. Get your treatment for $500, if not cured get back $1,000.

    Doctor Young, who was positive that this oldgeezer knew nothing about medicine, thought this would be a great opportunity to get $1,000.So he went to Dr. Geezers clinic and this is what transpired:Dr. Young: Dr. Geezer, I have lost all taste in my mouth, can you please help me ??Dr. Geezer: Nurse, please bring medicine frombox 22 and put 3 drops in Dr. Youngs mouth.Dr. Young: Aaagh !!-This is Gasoline!Dr. Geezer: Congratulations! Youve got your taste back. That will be $500.Dr. Young gets annoyed and goes back after a couple of days figuring to recover his money.Dr. Young: I have lost my memory, I cannot remember anything.Dr. Geezer: Nurse, please bring medicine frombox 22 and put 3 drops in the patients mouth.Dr. Young: Oh no you dont, that is Gasoline!Dr. Geezer: Congratulations! Youve got your memory back. That will be $500.

    Dr. Young (having lost $1000) leaves angrily and comes back after several more days.

    Dr. Young: My eyesight has become weak and I can hardly see !Dr. Geezer: Well, I dont have any medicine for that so ... Heres your $1000 back.Dr. Young: But this is only $500...Dr. Geezer: Congratulations! You got your vision back! That will be $500.

    Moral of story..................... Just because youre Young doesnt mean that you can outsmart an old Geezer !!

    Thanks to David Thorne for this.

    Help for HeroesWritten by Miranda Marshall Director at Hayes + Storr

    Q: Why is the Duke of Westminster one of the richest men in Britain?

    A: Because his late fathers estate was exempted from Inheritance Tax due to the death on active service exemption. The 4th Duke was shot in the knee during the Italian campaign in WWII. It was held that theinjury accelerated his death 20 years later. It was a major reason behind the Grosvenor Estates being saved for the family.

    Death on active service exemption is the oldest exemption in the long history of death duties (now called Inheritance Tax). It dates back to the reign of William & Mary andto the Probate Duty in 1694. It applies where thetaxpayer died from a wound inflicted, accident occurring or disease contracted while on activeservice against an enemy or on other service ofa warlike nature or involving the same risks. The death does not need to be on the battlefield:it is enough that the wound, accident or disease was inflicted, occurred or contracted when on active service. It does not need to be the only or direct pathological cause of death; it simply has to be a cause. The thinking is that those who give their life for their country should not pay tax to their country on their death. This relief has been substantially extended andthe reliefs increased by the Finance Act 2015. It now covers the death of emergency personneland also the death of constables and service personnel targeted because of their status. The old legislation had only exempted relief from the death charge but this has now been widened and includes lifetime gifts. In order to claim the exemption a certificate must be obtained from the MoD. The death of emergency personnel exemption covers search-&-rescue services such as coast-guards & RNLI, the police, fire brigade, medical,ambulance & paramedic services; it also covershumanitarian aid workers. The person must diewhile responding to emergency circumstances. The death may occur later and relief applies if theinjury sustained was one of the causes of death.

    For the constables and armed services personneltargeted because of their status exemption to apply it is immaterial whether the individual was carrying out his duties when attacked. It applies to both serving & former police officersand service personnel. The case of Fusilier Lee Rigby is a good example of such a death as are many Royal Ulster Constabulary officers killed in Northern Ireland over the years. This surely must be the one tax relief which no political party will seek to overturn.

    Blue Plaques For Cromer Lifeboat LegendsThree legendary Cromer RNLI Coxswains were honoured on Saturday 13th June. The humble houses they had lived in had distinctive blue plaques erected on the outside of the buildings.Cromers association with RNLI and its history of lifeboats, is full of stories of bravery and sea-manship & the town Council, along with other interested parties were keen to recognise this.The plaques were unveiled in honour of Henry Blogg, Henry Shrimp Davies & Lewis Tuna Harrison by members of their families. These 3 men had many years of service to the RNLI.Henry Blogg was born in 1876 and died in 1954 and was coxswain from 1909 to 1947.

(He got his nickname from his size as a youngster).Lewis Tuna Harrison was born in 1913and died in 2006; he was coxswain of Cromers Number 2 boat from 1953 to 1967. (His habitual whistling as a youngster earned him the nickname Tuner which was later adapted to fishier Tuna)

    Always Popular Soup & PudOn Friday 19th June, Lis and I popped in to enjoy the Mundesley Church monthly lunch some 90 yards along Hilda Road.This is always an enjoyable and tasty lunch of a choice of home-made soups and puddings, followed by a cup of tea or coffee. Some 30 souls enjoyed this lunch.At 5.00 each, that includes tickets to a raffle, it is good value for money, that goes to the Church funds.We won a box of chocolates this time round.Sadly, until Friday September 18th the Church takes a break from running these great lunches as the summer takes over.

    The lunches are all run by this jolly bunch of local volunteers (Above).See you all again on the 18th September. PK
