The return of Cromer’s annual carnival has been hailed as a success – despite a few hiccups due to the weather.
Tony Shipp, chairman of the carnival, said: “There was a fantastic atmosphere in the town all week.
“Local people were very keen and pleased to see it again and I think people visiting the town were happy to see something they could join in and have fun with.”

Dull skies meant the Red Arrows only did a fly-by rather than a full air show on Carnival Day on Wednesday last week, and fireworks and several other events had to be canceled due to the extreme heat.
But Mr Shipp said: “Other than that, all the events were well attended. Everyone has Cromer at heart, and that’s the main thing.”
Mr Shipp said the carnival’s organizing team – which has recently gained some new members – were now looking ahead to a Halloween event and would also hold a public meeting to discuss plans for next year’s carnival.
