West Acre Bonfire and Halloween Night 2018
The glorious summer passed briefly into autumn and then, seemingly, into an early winter. Saturday the 27th started wet and cold, and continued that way up to the start of this year's event. Those involved in the organising and preparations feared that the inclement weather would significantly reduce the attendance, and so were more than pleasantly surprised to see a good crowd gather for the usual fun and frolics.
Here's a selection of images from the night.

West Acre resident and Parish Councillor Jeremy Cameron is a compulsive walker. For some reason that is difficult to fathom, he has walked from Quebec to Detroit, New York to California, London to Venice, Hook of Holland to Istanbul. And other equally exotic places.
Looking for a new challenge, he decided to visit all forty-five places in England beginning with Q. Jeremy planned on taking two years to complete his quest, but some serious unwanted encounters with SERIOUS illness added another three years to his journeys.
Having reached Quaking Houses, the last on his list of Qs, Jeremy started to put pen to paper. The result is Quite Quintessential. Jeremy, pictured right, recently celebrated the launch of his latest book with an event at Jarrolds in Norwich. He traveled there, and back, by car. Wise man.
