The Norfolk Coach Crash

[DTCwordfan]

Notwithstanding that there were 9 injuries, no fatalities, why was a coach going around Norfolk on a Christmas 'Tour' today? I can't think of anything nmore redundant than a tour of Norfolk to sample the joys, or lack of them, in cold-spots like Denham.

Perhaps they were going to the cathedral, what with this being a religious festival?

well quite lucky there are no fatalities otherwise wouldnt be a good time to be taking pee out of norfolk. I hadnt heard about it till you said I hope there was no one on it I know. They may well have been visiting Thursford where alot of people from around the country visit every xmas, infact William and katy were there last week

[4getmenot]

have just read up on it, 6 of them are seriously hurt

[DTCwordfan]

but being out in this weather......where's the common sense? Though I guess its Norfolk.

[4getmenot]

they probably dont even come from Norfolk. I did have to look up Denham though....never heard of it

[DTCwordfan]

Dont think they were on a religious tour - the accident happened at the airport....unless the Pope's Airline, Ryan Air, counts as being worth a sacred visit.

[MikeLitoris]

I presume you are a great expert on Norfolk then, DT?

[fruitsalad]

denham is in Buckinghamshire

[4getmenot]

it happened near the airport. They had come from Holt for the xmas tour of Norwich

[DTCwordfan]

a typo there fruitsalad and I am sure that you know it - should have been an r and not a n in the middle.

The temp in Norwich is down on freezing, so out in the sticks?

Yes and I know Holt, knew a few folk at Greshams and actually applied for the job of bursar there recently.

[4getmenot]

oh well you could have got away with it coz I thought you meant to put Dereham but though I'd google Denham Norfolk before I said and there is one lol

[DTCwordfan]

I am in fine form on the typos tonight and through the afternoon!

And I have only just opened a bottle of wine having stayed dry at lunch time!

Oh well, hic, and Happy Xmas.

Seriously hope though that the 6 are ok.........

Norfolk isn't like Cumbria tonight - they have just reported Kendal coming in at -18 tonight on the Beeb and one of my sisters who lives near Carnforth has been down near Arnside this afternoon and the sea is freezing over with some spectacular formations of ice.
