Further South, given my recent driving experiences along the M6 around the West of Manchester, I would imagine it's encouraged, certainly behind the wheel.......

I have lots of happy memories of travelling into Suffolk. Like Norfolk, lots of "heavy machinery" enthusiasts abound there. One guy on the "steam circuit" (used to run a fair few historic commercials, including steam) had a valuable tool in his back garden: Coupled-up to his private water supply was a water-powered press, the only one big enough to press solid-band tyres onto steel rims (for a vintage fire appliance that I used to run). It was like a millstone on its side, huge piston that came up out of the ground. No stopping it, no way, once it was moving. Very slow to rise, but it had circa 50tonnes behind it..........

This is the problem with any property on the Norfolk/Suffolk coast. The DFL lot - have pushed prices up. If you were born/bred in a town/village on the coast - and wanna set up home - you now gotta go inland.
