Guest VaTam, Roys was begun by two brothers in the late 19th Century and to this day their descendants (still called Roy) own and manage the stores, of which there are now several throughout Norfolk. Mrs Roy (widow of one of the former owners) attends our WI.
Norfolk is a lovely county as it's still very unspoiled, not a single motorway! It's a time-warp of the fifties and sixties really. The Broads are gorgeous, but the coast is also superb, many gems such as Cromer and Sheringham, plus wildlife and bird sanctuaries. Fields and farms everywhere, and many old traditions. The Norfolk accent is also delightful, I adore living here and have done for the last 35 years.
Sorry, this is way off thread!
