'Alfred Nudd popped out from the hut that has been his home for 40 years yesterday to
be presented with a bottle of whiskey to celebrate his 86th birthday
from regulars at the Pleasure Boat Inn, Hickling. Mr Nudd, known as 'Mate' to his friends, lives in the hut nearby
on the edge of Hickling Broad, and for the past 25 years he has been
blind. He has been visiting the inn for 75 years, and he was also presented with a radio and
birthday cake.' [Born c 1895] |
