Eighteen people booked for the Motown show at Norwich Theatre Royal on Sunday 1st November the show starts at 19:30.

Attendees: Jo and Keryn, Sheila and Henry, Joy and Barrie, Ali and Dave, Gay and Steve, Den and Chris, Tom and Sharon, Russ and Pat, Phil and Sandra.

I had to go for the best class seats in the end, we have almost taken up an entire row!

Tickets were 18.50 although Sharon managed to get a discount through her company, so instead they are 17 per person.

I have had to pay upfront for all tickets so if could you send me a cheque made payable to myself (Thomas Lilley) at the earliest opportunity it would be appreciated:

3 The Old Smithy
Main Road
Filby, Great Yarmouth
Norfolk, NR293HS.

Norwich is great for shopping and of course being November it will almost be xmas (!) and so the shops will be fully stocked with crap! You may want to get into Norwich early to take advantage? Also the castle has been re-done and is also a good for a visit.

Dinner:
I propose we meet before the show for dinner (5:30pm) not sure about how people feel but there is a Weatherspoons (The Bell) centrally located, it will help keep costs down as I appreciate the show is not cheap. Alternatively we can look at something a little more plush? What do you think?

Accommodation options:
Maids Head Hotel:
Well thought of hotel although I have not stayed their myself so dont quote me! 90 B&B with plenty of availability on the Sunday night. Short walk to the theatre and parking at the hotel.

By Appointment:
Very slick and well thought of restaurant, accommodation is supposed to be top notch also.
Two doubles available one 140 and the other 120 both with breakfast and champagne!
Not sure about parking.
