Nosher's New Kittens and the BHF Sponsored Swim - October 1994

Nosher's up the Brome Swan for a few beers, when Sylvia brings a surprise out on to the bar: two fluffy kittens. As the kittens explore the beer pumps, it is revealed that they are a present for Nosher (who had expressed an interest in getting some cats for his otherwise-empty house), and come from a school-friend of Lorraine's. After sorting a few things out (like getting cat food), the kittens are taken back to the house for the first time. Later, it's the annual British Heart Foundation sponsored swim in Diss Pool. The Brome Swan enters a team, which for a few years has won the "most money collected" trophy.
