Oh, I see! Ok, here's how I'd do it, but I've only just got my IMC, so interesting to see if others agree.

For anyone trying to follow, the procedures are on-line: Manston and Norwich.

The answer to the Norwich question is the "alternate procedure". This is shown on the plate with a dotted line, to the right (east) of the IAF. It's also described below (just above Direct Arrivals): "Overhead NDB(L) NH (IAF) at 2000, fly outbound on QDR of LLZ 092deg descending to 1456(1350). At I-NH DME 6 procedure turn right (i.e. turn right 45 deg, then left 225 deg) to intercept LLZ. When established, proceed as for Main Procedure".

At Manston, I would simply join the hold, although if cleared immediately there's no need to actually fly a hold. So from the east, fly to the beacon, then fly an offset entry, and on reaching the beacon again begin the procedure.

Does that help?

Edit because Evo got there before me - but we agree on Manston, which is good!

Edit again because I got the hold entry wrong - d'oh!
