Ha. Zero contribution from Norfolk I see. Could be worse though (The Darkness. Ugh.)

 

They're (thankfully) from Lowestoft, which despite it's NR postal codes, I'm assured is really in Suffolk
They could have included 'the singing postman' but that would have distended the map a bit too much - and almost joined us up with Holland!

 

No mention of the Cleaving Heevages - disappointing, that's all I'm saying....

Lol, that cracked me up, not heard it before

While we're (or I'm ) 'bigging up' God's own county, here are Deaf Havana, from the rock n' roll strongholds of Hunstanton and King's Lynn
Decent song, too.
