Our journey from Paxton to Horning for a family weekend once Debbie was home from Saturday morning school and I was packed and ready to go. T

I had persuaded Diana to join me and the girls for the weekend in Norfolk, but first Debbie had to go to school for the morning. I was a little slow out with Sam but gave him a good and energetic run and then came back to do my chores before packing up to leave. The swimming pool was starting to come round after a season of neglect but there was still a long way to go yet. I then sat Sam down on a blanket and loaded up the car. He is good to obey this command but must be told to stay there occasionally due to his puppyish boredom. Daniel awoke belatedly and washed Diana's car at the last minute to earn £5 and then, once Debbie came home, we all set off.

First to the Croxton Happy Eater for lunch with Daniel and then, as he headed back, we drove on to Norfolk, meeting up again at Wroxham Library. There the girls had reserved some books and needed to take back and renew many more. To Harnser which we found in good shape and was a welcome and hospitable sight. Debbie looked after Sam for a while whilst I helped Diana get unpacked and settled in and then I took him into Horning for a proper walk whilst Diana prepared the children’s tea. We then left them to watch TV and went off for a nice meal at Wroxham Bridge Restaurant and walk around the waterfront afterwards. The we
ather was fine and warm today, after a very cold and misty start. I had met some young anglers on Mill Field in Paxton packing up after an all-night fishing session and they looked very miserable. This evening, I met Doris who was pleased to see us back in residence after being the only one in Ropes Hill Dyke.
