Cruising back aboard the Paxton Princess
Cruising back aboard the Paxton Princess

Shopping in Wroxham with Wiggly and cruising back aboard the Paxton Princess. Off to Norwich to ride some of the scary rides at the Easter Fair that occupied Castle Meadow

A good night of sound sleep and a fair run for Sam amongst the mess and rubble of the building site.

Leaving him in his kennel box aboard the Paxton Princess, I took Wiggly and went for a walk into Wroxham and did some shopping.

In the chandlers, I bought her a nice pair of boating shoes that could double up for leisure use and then also bought myself a couple of pairs in size 12 as they had now taken to stocking them.

Some time to look around Roy's and enjoy a morning coffee and then back to the boat to set off back to Horning. The cruise went well. Sam behaved himself, Wiggly took turns to helm and also cleared up the inside of the boat and we were soon back at our moorings inside my purpose-built boat shed.

Quickly got ready and, settling Sam down in the garden, Wiggly and I took off for Norwich to do some shopping. It was quite tiring following her around as she shopped but we got her a nice flouncy skirt, a new brown summer light-weight coat and us both some shorts in the modern, longer, style.

I left her and she prepared the seafood salad that I had bought in Norwich, whilst I walked the dog and then we ate our tea and drove back into the city for an evening's entertainment.

It was her wish to go on some of the scary rides at the Easter Fair that occupies Castle meadow and so we rode three until the most violent had us regretting it and feeling much the worst for wear.

I also tried a few side shows, thinking to win her a dinosaur but failed. We then left the fair and went on to the nearby cinema where I took Wiggly to see the Demi Moore film about male sexual harassment again.

I enjoyed it but she was not too keen and I hoped it did not have too much to do with the sexy tall dark-haired career woman losing out in her quest to break up a family by beguiling the hero. Back to Ropes Hill Dyke and soon to bed.

I got up to get us a Bournevita and banana each and, with this, we again fell fast asleep; finding the boat bunk very comfortable.
