Suffolk/Norfolk Massive Naim forum social event.
Posted by: Michael on 15 July 2008
Hi Gang,
I am hosting a Suffolk/Norfolk "Massive" social get together at my place in Lowestoft on Saturday 26th July. Kicking off around 3 p.m. with a fish and chip supper around 6 p.m.
Norman (Rodborough) and Ian from UHES will be coming.
Although mainly a social occasion you will have the opportunity of hearing the all 500/NBL system.
Hope to see as many who can make it then.

Sorry Mike, can't do that date - SWMBO is organising the local church fete worse than death & I'd be strung up if I didn't help out. 
One day I'll get to hear the famous NBLs I'm sure...

Hi Michael
We are both really looking forward to it and it will be great to meet some of the “Suffolk/Norfolk Massive”, proper fish & chips too as only Lowestoft can produce sounds like I had better bring a case of wine.
Actually it’s your music collection that I covet most Michael <sigh>
Warmest regards
Norman

Hi Munch
We never did get to the bottom of this, you didn’t reply to my email sadly, to the best of my knowledge we have never met which is my loss I am sure and something easily rectified you would be welcome here any time.
Warmest regards

Hi Michael. I would love to come but sadly, as usual, it's too short notice for me as I will be babysitting on that weekend.
Good news for the future though, is that my wife has an interview for a job that is Mon - Fri, 9-5.
Could give me a lot more freedom at the weekends........or I could end up being dragged around the shops carrying loads of bags every weekend!
B***er, didn't think of that!
Have a great time.

Right up until the last minute I've been hedging my bets but sorry, I won't be able to make it...Some day, some day I'll attend another of these!

Not another car blown up, James?
Posted on: 25 July 2008 by JamieWednesday
Nope, a lot of shrubs and bushes in front of the house that need clearing and I'm getting less than subtle hints that their time is nigh...given that a skip was deposited on the drive today.

Blimey! Are you sure that removing a few shrubs is all that's being 'suggested'?!!

Sorry you can't make it Jamie.... phew I don't envy you that job with today's weather forecast!
... at least we will have a refreshing sea breeze here in sunny Lowestoft to keep us a little cooler!

I'll be thinking of you as I work away in a hot kitchen knocking up cream teas.

Well...we choose one of the warmest days of the year so it was good to sit in the shade and chat.
After the excellent fish and chip supper and the evening had cooled down a little we went inside for some more chat and a listen to the system.

Thanks to Mike and Pam for hosting a most enjoyable day with traditional 'Low-Stuff' fare from the sea.
Too hot for some serious listening, but great to have a chat and do the important stuff - swap musical discoveries.
