A Norfolk café received a visit from an Olympic medallist who enjoyed some well-earned treats upon his return from Paris. 

Fresh from competing at the Olympic Games, cyclist Daniel Bigham stopped by the Castle Café in New Buckenham this week as he visited family who live in the area. 

Dressed in his Team GB gear, the 32-year-old enjoyed some coffee along with a slice of millionaire's shortbread and a Mars traybake.
