Up early this morning on a day that started very cold but became very warm and then under way on the Bure, putting the mud-weight down at Wroxham Broad and taking The Jolly in under the bridge to moor up in the town centre for coffee and shopping.
Off in The Jolly to the Horning Leisure Centre for a swim. Then, with the inflatable on the davits and then set off downstream getting as far as St Bennetts Abbey before dusk. News today is of John Major re-organising his cabinet and giving the boot to Kenneth Baker and Tom King
To our bunks early last night but Della was complaining about spiders and was not willing to settle down easily. Up early this morning on a day that started very cold but became very warm. Breakfast moored at Heronshaw and then we set off upstream to start with, putting the mud-weight down at Wroxham Broad and taking The Jolly in under the bridge to moor up in the town centre. Coffee in Roys and then Diana and Debbie went shopping for food and clothes whilst Della and I combined a look around the shops that I was interested in with a chance for Della to start taking photographs for her latest Brownie badge.

All together for lunch at "The Ice-Cream Cafe" and then back to The Jolly, The Paxton Princess and Heronshaw where Di did some washing, I some chores and then we went off in The Jolly to the Horning Leisure Centre for a swim. Tea back at Heronshaw after which we swapped The Jolly for the inflatable on the davits and then set off downstream getting as far as St Bennetts Abbey before dusk. A vigorous walk up to the oak cross marking the site of the old abbey and then back to settle down in the Paxton Princess for the evening. News today is of John Major re-organising his cabinet and giving the boot to Kenneth Baker, Tom King and others and bringing in two women to the cabinet. A glorious day of weather and we hope for the same tomorrow.
