And finally, two-time figure skating Olympic gold medalist Yuzuru Hanyu is a huge Winnie-the-Pooh fan, and often after he skated the crowd would throw hundreds of Winnie toys onto the ice in appreciation (which he then donated to local charities). #YuzuruHanyu

@bridgetjanejone Ah! And I wondered if it was your jug because I remembered you saying you often visited at Christmas and her birthday! Isn’t that funny!

[Liz Elmore @lizeatsdirt]

@bridgetjanejone This is so lovely. I visited her over the summer and left some flowers too. Dear old Olive!

[Liz Elmore @lizeatsdirt]

@bridgetjanejone Wow, that’s amazing! I do miss Cromer. Have you seen the roller skating photos of Donnie Abbs who lived in the cottage behind the museum? They were always my favourites (as a fellow roller skater!)

[Liz Elmore @lizeatsdirt]

Oh, Olive ❤️

[Cromer Museum @CromerMuseum]

A new acquisition for #Cromer Museum - a photograph of an unidentified woman by #OliveEdis on the back is marked 'I think I can do better than this'.

[Liz Elmore @lizeatsdirt]

@bridgetjanejone Of course I remember you! I often refer back to your fantastic transcriptions of letters when I get an Olive query! How are you doing? Lovely to hear you’re back at the museum! I’m based at Norwich Castle these days.

@fzzt_simmons @ISU_Figure The question on everyone’s lips and yet no one seems to want to respond from @ISU_Figure @eurosport or @BritishIceSkate…we love this sport, why won’t you let us watch?

[Liz Elmore @lizeatsdirt]

@ISU_Figure I’d love to but apparently the UK isn’t allowed to watch. Would be great to get some clarity on this from @ISU_Figure @eurosport and @BritishIceSkate rather than just being ignored when we ask what’s happening.

[Liz Elmore @lizeatsdirt]

Even the highlights playlist is geoblocked on the @ISU_Figure channel. Do you not want people to watch your sport? 🥲

[Liz Elmore @lizeatsdirt]

Can anyone clarify who has the UK rights to the FS Grand Prix this season? I’m paying for a @eurosport subscription specifically to watch skating, @ISU_Figure website says that’s where to watch #SkateAmerica but no sign of it. YouTube streams are blocked here. @BritishIceSkate?

[Liz Elmore @lizeatsdirt]

@helenmarie95 @Mark_Hanretty Thanks for flagging this Helen! I’m having the same issue. I pay for @Eurosport especially to watch skating and now I’m stuck with a subscription to a channel that’s not even bothering to show our sport. 🙁

[Liz Elmore @lizeatsdirt]

@helenmarie95 @ISU_Figure It’s ridiculous. The ISU’s own website literally says @Eurosport are showing it and links to their website but it’s not on there anywhere. I’m gutted, I look forward to this all year. No exaggeration.

@StuartHobley @BBCRadio4 They absolutely should! We did approach Women’s Hour when the Norwich Castle exhibition opened but they didn’t fancy it at the time. Great Lives would be a brilliant format for her story though!

Divers found clothing typically worn by women in a chest recovered from the wreck of the Gloucester, suggesting there may have been a female passenger, perhaps a royal servant, on board in 1682.

See these stunning pieces on show until 10 September.
