Are there any Diss(ish) new(ish) Mums on MN?

I have been past it quite few times - quite a nice area - but very easy to get lost if you have people coming from away. I have heard it did weddings but have never been inside - sorry - not much help.

Have you tried googling it - lots of pages come up - doesn't look exstorionatley expensive.

Have to admit the obscure location worried me a little, I've been here nearly 4 years now and never worked out where it is!

Well it is pretty near the middle of Gissing, and I guess from the A140 it isn't too bad to find - but cross country from where I live near Long Stratton, or coming up from Diss it took us quite a few times to figure out the route through Gissing ! It looks pretty impressive from the photos. Why don't you visit it and see what you think.

Do you get views over the Mere from there?

throckenrobin · 14/12/2004 16:02

hmm - I don't remember - but from it's location you probably ought to be able to.

Hi I've just moved to Great Yarmouth, that's quite near Diss isn't it?

throckenrobin · 16/12/2004 12:26

um - not really - from Yarmouth you would go down towards Beccles/Bungay and then keep going west - probably would take about 40 mins to drive.

ZCMUM · 16/12/2004 12:27

I've been as far as Beccles, I've been to Banham Zoo, that's near Diss isn't it?

DissLocated · 16/12/2004 12:30

Yes it is! They have a vast car boot sale on Sundays.

throckenrobin · 16/12/2004 12:31

yep - actually Diss is nearer Yarmouth and Banham zoo

Hi Guys,
Just googled for Monsters in Diss and this thread came up, just wanted to say hi, I am in Long Stratton. Went to Monsters today with my ds age 2.5, he loved it, fantastic place.

DissLocated · 16/12/2004 20:36

Hello Emmylou - I'm in Diss as well (have recently changed my name from Willowmum) Have a look at the NorfolkMummies thread, that seems to have livened up today!
