Norwich City manager Alex Neil says the sale of Swedish international Martin Olsson was "good for business".

He's been signed by Swansea City on a two-and-a-half-year deal, for a fee of around £4m.

A proposal to move a town's memorial to victims of the 1953 floods "is not a surprise", says Hunstanton councillor Elizabeth Nockolds.

She's just taken over responsibility for the town's improvement scheme. 

After a two-year consultation, Ms Nockolds says there was approval for moving the memorial further along the Esplanade Gardens, to make way for a makeover. 

"This proposal has been out there for some time. It's been discussed by the Hunstanton Civic Society, external, the Green Management Committee and the town council, external.

"We don't want to spoil anybody's memories - it was a really bad time in the '53 floods and I wouldn't want to do anything to upset anybody." 

Long-standing resident Dick Melton remembers the floods. He says it's not just for people in the coastal town but for everybody, including Americans who come to look at it.

He said: "If it was sited further along, it wouldn't be near the war memorial."   

Plans to move Hunstanton's 1953 flood memorial to a new location in the resort have upset some residents of the town.

It stands opposite the war memorial, next to Reis Leming Way, in memory of the 15 local people and 16 Americans who lost their lives. 

The council couldn't pay for a memorial but gave some land, and a group of local men took rocks from the beach, and built the memorial themselves.  Neil Quincey, who's in his 90s, was one of those men - he doesn't think it's necessary to move it.  

Norwich used to be known as the city with a pub for every day of the year, but it's no surprise to find out they're on the decline.

In keeping with the national trend, numbers have dropped by more than 11% in a five year period. Whereas cafes and restaurants are on the increase, seeing a rise of more than 4% and 13% respectively from 2011 to 2016.

The biggest increase has been in the number of Chinese restaurants doubling from two to four, but bad luck if you had a taste for Tibetan or Turkish fare - there's no longer any outlets with their dishes on the menu.

And if you fancy a flutter, you're in luck - the number of bookmakers has increased from seven to 10.

The figures were collated by people walking up and down the city's streets.

Back to our story we brought you yesterday on the appeal by Great Yarmouth Borough Council asking for residents to return any sandbags they were given last week ahead of the storm surge.

More than 32,000 were handed out, and council leader Graham Plant explains why they want them back.

He said: "This is the second one in two years - if they're not brought back they'll deteriorate, the sand will break out and block all the drains and then we'll get flooding of a different kind when it rains heavily."

Norwich City have confirmed that full back Martin Olsson has joined Premier League Swansea City.

Swedish international Olsson joined City from Blackburn Rovers in 2013. He's made 19 appearances so far this season.

The fee is undisclosed.

Swansea City sign Sweden left-back Martin Olsson from Championship club Norwich for a fee of around £4m.

The rail company Greater Anglia has signed an agreement to sell 40% of its rail franchise to Mitsui & Co, pending final regulatory approvals.

The two companies have a track record of working together. 

They first entered into a joint venture to bid for the West Midlands rail franchise in 2016, along with the East Japan Railway Company. 

Following this, Abellio felt that Mitsui would be the best partner to run the Greater Anglia franchise in a 60:40 venture.

It will be the first time a Japanese company has became a shareholder of a British train operating company.

Abellio first operated the franchise from February 2012, and re-won it in August 2016.

It will continue to have a majority stake in the business and be in overall control.

It plans to spend £1.4bn on more than 1,000 new carragies, free wi-fi and station improvements - and has a commitment to cut average journey times by 10%.

Passengers travelling on mainline rail services from Norwich to London face delays to their journey. 

Trains are running at reduced speed, due to a fault with the signalling system between Norwich and Diss.

Greater Anglia warns of delays, external up to 10 minutes, and says the disruption is expected to continue until 14:00.

Cromer Pier has reopened, after being closed for several days following last Friday's storm.

Hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of damage was caused to the Victorian structure.

The damage was not caused by waves coming over it, but from the force of waves underneath, pushing up the decking and breaking it.

Greater Anglia, external warns of delays to rail services between Norwich and Diss.

A fault with the signalling system means trains are running at  reduced speed. Services may been delayed by up to 10 minutes.

Network Rail engineers are working to fix the problem. Disruption is expected until mid-morning.

Three properties were lost to the sea and four more were badly damaged when Hemsby was hit by the tidal surge on 5 December 2013.

The following summer, the campaign group, Save Hemsby Coastline, failed in its bid for government funding to help fight coastal erosion.

In June 2015, honeycomb-shaped concrete blocks were installed along a 361ft (110m) stretch of the coastline, funded from £70,000 raised by residents. Norfolk County Council contributed £50,000.

But villagers said another 1.5km of defences were needed, costing around £1.5m. The council said it had no plans to provide any more money.

Last January, 200 Christmas trees were taken to the beach, to bolster the sea defences.  The trees were buried in groups, to build up the dunes.

The funeral of a Big Issue North seller was paid for through donations raised online, but just how common are crowdfunded services?

Local people who've built sea defences at Hemsby say they've proved they are fit for purpose.

They say areas behind the concrete blocks were protected from Friday's storms, whereas other areas of the dunes suffered erosion.

The beach is owned by the Watling Trust, external, and spokesman David Walker says it's now time for more official help to extend the defences.

He said: "Nobody's private or public funds are unlimited. We have to find feasible ways forward that's economic and takes accounts of people's interest and livelihoods locally.

"Hemsby's an important place for us and we have the interests of the people who live here very much at heart."

A Great Yarmouth Borough Council, external spokesperson said there has been "further slippage of the dune system at Hemsby, thought not as great as originally feared" and they'll continue to monitor the system. 

A community that built its own sea defences says Friday's storm surge proves their scheme is working. 

In the tidal surge of 2013, several homes in Hemsby were lost to the sea, and others badly damaged.   

The Save Hemsby Coastline, external group has had permission to have a trial of a range of concrete block defences and local people say this weekend the hexagonal blocks protected the dunes behind them. Unprotected areas were damaged.

Villagers have been raising funds to extend the sea defence trial after the government rejected funding. Ian Brennan, chair of the group, says it needs the scheme signed off by Great Yarmouth Borough Council.

The A149 coast road in Cley next the Sea remains closed due to flooding from the weekend's storms.

The Cley Marshes Nature Reserve, external is still under water following the high tides and gale force winds that battered the coast on Friday. 

Kevin Hart, of the Norfolk Wildlife Trust, external, says the damage to the reserve isn't as bad as that suffered in the 2013 storm, but will still need a big clear-up.

"We've put different infrastructure in place since then, and new designs to the hides out there, and we've got a tethered boardwalk which floats up, so all our infrastructure stayed in place this time," he said.

"There's a lot of salt water, which is very bad for the freshwater habitat - the quicker we can get it off, the better and some of the low-lying reed beds will have to be pumped out.

"The salt water is very bad for a number of freshwater species, so there will be wildlife casualties but it's interesting how resilient nature is. When we've brushed off some of the reed thatch today it's been full of invertebrates, so it's not a disaster but the reserve does need to recover from this.

"It's not the first time it's happened here, it won't be the last and these species will bounce back."
