X-Factor finalist Stacey Solomon came to Norwich this weekend as a special guest at a family event.

The singer hosted the day at the Car Shop on Boundary Road in Norwich which was celebrating its grand opening.

Miss Solomon, who hosted a competition during the day of face painting, bouncy castles and car browsing, said she really enjoyed the family day.

She said: “There are so many people here, it’s great. And I brought my little boy with me to enjoy himself.

“I really like Norwich. We used to come to the Norfolk Broads all the time when I was a child, so it’s nice to be back.”

Jonathan Dunkley, the Car Shop’s operation’s director, said the Shop’s reception in Norwich has been “brilliant”.

And it was a brilliant day too for mature student Richard Kerton, 45, from Hellesdon, who won a car during the day’s events.
