The staycation summer has been jam-packed for many, from trips away, to days outs, and everything in between.
But what has been your highlight?
Our reporter Aaron McMillan asked people in Fakenham what has been their highlight during the summer months as we got used to being back outdoors once more.
Catherine Cockrill, 60, from Fakenham, said: “A break over in the Broads. I could travel by car and I felt like I had been away.
"I went for a trip on a boat with a friend, we also had wonderful weather there as well, a great trip.”
William Parker, 73, from Fakenham, said: “My trading at the shop has been great, I have made a lot of money and done well.
"This summer has been the best trade I have done in some time.”
