Settling Sam down as he gradually got used to his dietary regime and Horning kennel

I managed a shopping trip into Norwich with Diana and the girls before and after settling Sam down as he gradually got used to his dietary regime and Horning kennel. Also setting mole traps for Doris next door and buying binoculars from Norfolk Marine. A fine if dull day but not too chilly

Better luck with Sam this morning. He had only done a little mess in his kennel and so I was concluding that he could soon have a larger measure of food at meal-times if he continues to digest it properly. He was naughty later, rushing up on a little girl and her father when off the lead at lunchtime and then wandering forward in the car when left in Wroxham. I had taken him out to Horning Upper Street again this morning but kept him on the lead so as not to run-in on the field of geese. He was then left in the kennel whilst I took Diana and the girls to Norwich for some shopping but seemed quite frantic when we got back, and I assumed that Jack had come by and he was not able to relax again.

I had bought some bits for my multi-meter, a whole range of maps and also a new pair of size 12 Barbour hunting boots to replace those lost in the car theft. Once back in Horning and having exercised the dog, I went next door and reset the three mole traps for Doris Vincent. I think that I will get the little blighter this time as I tapped into three main-line tunnels but tomorrow will tell. Also bought a fairly economical pair of binoculars from Norfolk Marine. It was fine if dull today but not too chilly. Poor Diana is also suffering from stress after Della had an unsettled night but at least I tended Della and did the best I could.
