Sam had quite a good day and still grows and feeds well

Another mild and still day working and shopping as we enjoyed a morning coffee and scone at Jarrold’s Coffee Shop and lunch at Oliver’s after going to the splendid material shop recommended by the dress-maker to choose some curtain fabric and linings.

The dog had quite a good day and still grows and feeds well but is quite easily woken when coming and leaving from the property.

The day started with a morning call from Sam at 7.15am after which I washed, shaved, dressed and then went out to feed and exercise him for most of an hour. After breakfast Diana went and got Jean the dress-maker in her car and they sorted out the dimensions and plans for the living room curtains within an hour or so. I had managed to get one of the curtain rails up last night and most of another one this morning and that gave them something to measure to. We then all set off for Norwich to do some shopping. The girls were happy enough to go to the library while Diana and I had a morning coffee and scone at Jarrold’s Coffee Shop and then walked on to the splendid material shop recommended by the dress-maker to choose some curtain fabric and linings.

Parking was the problem in Norwich today, but I stayed on two separate thirty-minute parking bays and then brought the car right up to the curtain shop in the pedestrian area to load up. Together for lunch at Oliver’s and then I drove the girls back to Harnser whilst Diana stayed and came home on the bus after doing some more Christmas Shopping. We had made the tea for her and so were soon ready afterwards for an evening at the cinema watching the film "Home Alone II". I had just about enough of the girls playing around and arguing by then and was tired after several early mornings. The dog had quite a good day but is quite easily woken when coming and leaving from the property. He still grows and feeds well. Another mild and still day and thankfully dry again.
