NOTHING FOR YOUNGSTERS
TO DO IN SHERINGHAM? |
As all who read this paper will be aware, including parents and children. A disco was put
on, Friday 24th October for 17 year olds and younger.
Posters and tickets for sale were put up over four weeks prior to the Event. A £30
Walkman was arranged as a prize and the total cost was over £200.
NO-ONE TURNED UP FOR THE EVENT
Thanks to the 11 people who wasted their evening to help.
What do you Parents and Children want? We would be very grateful for your CONSTRUCTIVE
informed comments, and please be good enough to put your name to them.

As most of you will be aware by now, we here at the paper are very pro youth, we do not
subscribe to the idea that they are all loud mouthed yobs. But, all you have to do is
listen to them and their constant complaint is that there is nothing to do in Sheringham.
I went to take photos to do a short story about this event. First of all I had to go to my
office and as I drove through town, congregated by YESU and again at the Town Clock were
many young people who I know are under 17. It was an aweful night too. When I got to the
Community Centre it was all dark and locked. I thought I had the wrong night. But no.
No-one had turned up and the organisers had closed up shop. So maybe the youth of
Sheringham would like to let us at the paper know why the cold, dark, damp streets are
preferable to the warm Community Centre, with top Club DJs, nightclub style lighting and a
SAFE ENVIRONMENT! You are often very articulate in the streets, tell us what you want and
maybe something can be arranged. You only get out what you are prepared to put in! We need
your input!

TRUE, FALSE or
JUST AN INTERESTING THEORY?
England is old and small and the local folks started running out of places to bury people.
So they would dig up coffins and would take the bones to a "bone-house" and
reuse the grave.
When reopening these coffins, 1 out of 25 coffins were found to have scratch marks on the
inside and they realised they had been burying people alive. So they thought they would
tie a string on the wrist of the corpse, lead it through the coffin and up through the
ground and tie it to a bell. Someone would have to sit out in the graveyard all night (the
"graveyard shift") to listen for the bell; thus, someone could be "saved by
the bell" or was considered a "dead ringer."
