Roy North at The Beachcomber
“Imagine a warm summer evening - The Beachcomber Discotheque, and your cool DJ Roy North…” Such was my sexy ‘voice over’ jingle at the time, but what ever happened to this popular music host? Well, he retired to cruise The Norfolk Broads, and as my dear friend – became one half of ‘The Broadland Folk’

Tall Mill on The Norfolk Broads
This evoking picture of ‘Tall Mill’ near the village of Upton was taken by ‘The Broadland Folk’ on their further adventures in the fair county of Norfolk.
Note the very clever use of picture composition to include a far distant Mill in the scene.

It was a wonderful evening of entertainment when Marilyn and I attended Ellen Kent’s production of Turandot at Dunstable’s Grove Theatre recently. Music by Giacomo Puccini, from plays by Carlo Gozzi and Friedrich Von Schiller. It featured Galina Bernaz as a very able Princess Turandot, Irakli Crigali as Calif – the unknown Prince and Timur’s son.

The Grove Theatre in Dunstable, Bedfordshire
Liu – The Young Slave Girl was beautifully portrayed by Elena Dee, and Timur by Valeriu Cojocaru. Humor was supplanted in the shapes of Ping, Pang, and Pong – Vladimir Dragos, Anatol Arcea, and Vasile Micusa.
The whole pleasure was conducted by the very talented Gheorghe Stanciu.
