Daniel had his first interview, today at a computer company near Heathrow

Some time with Sam, recovered from his infection as Diana views cars and I plan my next trips to Norfolk. Daniel had his first interview today at a computer company near Heathrow

I stayed at home today as Diana went to Cambridge to shop and meet her Mum and Dad. I was up and out with Sam as usual, but the milk float spooked him and made him jumpy for much of his morning walk which rather spoilt it for both of us. The silly dog is only frightened of electric milk floats and does not turn a hair at the motor-driven ones in Norfolk. He had the anglers to contend with on his evening walk.

Today was the eve of the fishing season and they were staked out with all of their tackle at the gravel pits waiting for midnight. He took his last antibiotic this morning and seemed quite cured of all his spots when I took a good look at him when brushing his coat during the day. Daniel was quite late up but then drove off very early for his appointment at a computer company near Heathrow. He made a good impression and may well be invited back for a second interview.

Diana went and collected my £200 deposit from Marshalls in Cambridge and spent it as her reward and also started to look at replacing her own car with a new one which came as a bit of a shock to me! I just stayed in all day and worked on the backlog of correspondence and paperwork, turning to some filing this evening which will be a real bind as there is so much of it!

I arranged to go and have drinks and a game of snooker with Nigel tomorrow night, and I also telephoned Steven about our next Norfolk trip. The weather is not very good for going out to sea this week and so he will stay at home, and I will go to get some work done at Harnser. It was mild and dull today, with quite a bit of sun but the odd shower as well. The forecast is for it to remain unsettled for the rest of the week.
