Dear Dad ...

[nw6pie]

Yeah same as many others taken to Meadow lane by my Dad third generation Magpie fan, remember always going in the Norfolk Arms before the game they had a kids room in the corner of the pub. Used to meet up with Uncle & Auntie at half time they had main stand season tickets Auntie used to bring me a pork pie sandwich( still make um to this day) I remember the good times and the bad but most of my memories are happy watching some exciting football at times and witnessing the Magpies in the top flight twice.
Happy Days !!!

Pork pie sandwiches - now there?s a culinary delight I’ve never tried.

Not sure when the Norfolk Hotel was demolished (I assume that’s the pub you mean - on London Road?), but I used to go in there as a kid when my dad first took me back in the 70s.

About a decade later, we moved on to the Plumtre Arms in the Meadows - many happy pre-match times spent there during the Warnock and Walker years.

You're right - my bad. Norfolk Hotel was the name. Apparently it closed in the 1990s.
