Yes you read that correctly.
Our premier seaside resort has been caught with its trousers down with the news that the town has been home to three spies.
Not sure just what secrets Yarmouth has to divulge. I just hope they haven't bugged the Joyland snails.

As I have said in the past, our country relies on volunteers. Without them, so many groups and organisations would grind to a halt.
I was reminded of this once again on our visit to Cromer. This is carnival week in Cromer with a massive number of events every day. Yesterday was carnival day. I know from experience of my time working in the resort just how much effort goes into arranging these events. It takes all year.
On my way back from the village yesterday I walked through the area generally known as the Christmas Roads. Every year there is a magical display in these roads throughout December. I know from speaking to the organisers that planning starts in September and goes on through to the switch on day.
The display takes place close to our so called short term car park. This is a bone of contention which I have mentioned before. Shortly a new sign is expected stating that the maximum permitted stay is 30 minutes.
Yesterday when I went past, every parking space was filled and my guess is that most if not all of those vehicles will be parked well in excess of half an hour which makes a mockery of the phrase "short term." Some will undoubtedly stay all day.

Wasn't that a brilliant display of football from England yesterday to make the Women's World Cup Final?
And Norfolk can be immensely proud of our own Lauren Hemp who was the best player on the pitch against Australia.
She scored one, made another and generally ran the Aussies ragged with her hustling and speed.
I think one of my better achievements over the years was supporting women and girls football in our village when I was chair of Hethersett Athletic Football Club. For quite sometime we challenged Norwich City Ladies as the best woman's team in Norfolk. In fact we won the Eastern Region Cup three years in a row.
We had some good footballing times with the likes of Sue and Ray Milne, Tom Parke and Chris Bolderstone at the helm.
It was interesting to hear the England team talk in glowing terms about their coach Serena Wiegman. They praised her for her kindness and always wanting to win but in the right way.
It's always good to hear when genuinely nice people succeed. You don't have to be nasty to succeed although some people seem to think that you do.
I think we've all met them at some point in our lives. I have never responded to aggressive behaviour or bullying and never will. I don't apologise for this. I am a firm believer in kindness and this certainly seems to have worked with the women's football team.
Kindness motivates, aggression kills. So come Sunday we will all be glued to our television sets to see if the Lionesses can lift the World Cup and become only the second English team to do so. Remember 1966? Norwich City are playing at the same time I believe. Carrow Road could be half empty (or half full depending on how you look at things).
I was glued to the television once but it all got rather messy.
Must make another comment about our so called local news programme Look East. As already mentioned, Lioness Lauren Hemp comes from Norfolk. In fact she comes from North Walsham.
So where did Look East go to watch people watching the match? You might have thought a club/ bar in North Walsham or even North Norfolk. No they went to Billericay which is decidedly in Essex and decidedly not in Norfolk.
The only thing I know from Billericay is Tricky Dickie. That's a pop/rock music comment by the way.
