What do you need on the way to the beach on a beautiful summer’s day in Norfolk?
Ice cream?
Flip Flops?
A cracking book to read?
A great cup of coffee (with cake)?
If you find yourself at Burnham Overy Staithe, Norfolk, heading to the beach or planning to sail from the harbour, Jenny Gurney has set up a stand on the edge of the BOS car park - selling premium flip-flops* and copies of Klaxon, in the shade behind the only ice cream van and just a few metres from Sandy, the ‘Norfolk Coffee Pedlar’.
Jenny, a musician who has just finished a Masters degree in Music Composition, is taking advantage of the good (well, most of the time…) weather to help visitors and tourists who may have dashed out without some of these essential items. This is Jenny's 2nd year selling Klaxon to beach-goers ('....for 1 glorious week at the end of August, the #1-selling Klaxon retail outlet worldwide!' See article ).NB:
