Chocolate Easter egg, a visit to Little Paxton woods and a family service at St James’s Church for the whole family this morning and then a trip to Cambridge this evening to update my Apple Mac for a faster version before resuming work on my election literature. News of my father calling next Tuesday after his Addenbrooke’s Hospital appointment and of President Bush going back on Reagans commitment to the Contras. High winds at Alton Towers strands 27 people on its cable car ride who had to be rescued with ropes and harnesses
I was tired again this morning, upon awakening but still got up for breakfast and have the meal with the family. After a round of ‘French Toast’ for me and cereal for the kids, we all had some Easter Egg. This tradition will lead to me putting on a lot of weight this weekend! This morning, we first went to Little Paxton Woods for its only open day in the year. I had recently tried to buy this wood but Oxford University Chest did not want to sell. The weather was very windy today, but it was more sheltered in the wood, if very muddy. We then hurried home and changed to go to St James’s Church in time for the family service at 10:30am. The church was full, but not crowded and it was a nice Good Friday service.

This evening, I went to Cambridge and had my Mac SE computer replaced with a much faster version which will be welcome. This evening, I had resumed work on the election literature but turned in quite early as I am still suffering from my recent exertions. I heard from my parents today; dad will be dropping by on Tuesday after his Addenbrooke’s Hospital appointment. The world news is of President Bush going back on Reagan’s commitment to the Contras – this time only humanitarian support will be given if the Contras do not resume armed trouble. At Alton Towers today, high winds led to the cable car stopping and 27 people had to be rescued with ropes and harnesses.
