The flooded Ropes Hill Dyke
The flooded Ropes Hill Dyke

Di and family joins me at icy, cold and flooded Ropes Hill Dyke after I had travelled from Eynesbury and bid farewell to Wiggly. I met Di at the top of the road to escort her car through the flood until safely in the garage.

News of a voltage surge doubling power to a neighbourhood in Norwich and causing electrical appliances to burst into flames and thirty people had to evacuate their homes.

Cruel storms and high tides threatened the Norfolk coast and a barge building the new reef off of Sea Pauling was driven onto the reef rocks. Norwich lost 4-0 to Liverpool in a televised match

We both slept well at Montagu Street after Wiggly had brought in a second duvet from the next bedroom until first woken by a false alarm from her car outside.

We think that the fast passage of the early-morning road salting and gritting vehicle kept doing this. We slept on until 7.00am and then just lay until I was the first one up at 8.00am.

I shaved, washed and took a cup of tea up for my lover and then I dressed and she donned a dressing gown for us to have breakfast together before I packed and left for Norfolk.

The weather had been cold, icy and snowy with the road conditions dangerous, but I made the journey to Horning all right. I had stopped off first at Coneygeare and then Barton Mills again on the way for Sam to have exercise and food.

Then on to find Ropes Hill Dyke under water from high tides and melted snow as bad as last year. I still managed to get in, unloaded and Sam settled, but I did have to wade through the floodwater.

Time to clean the house top to bottom before I met Di at the top of the road to escort her car through the flood until safely in the garage. A quiet afternoon updating my journal notes of these last two days whilst the girls relaxed and Diana got Harnser how she liked it.

News of a voltage surge doubling power to a neighbourhood in Norwich and causing electrical appliances to burst into flames and thirty people had to evacuate their homes.

Cruel storms and high tides threatened the Norfolk coast and a barge building the new reef off of Sea Pauling was driven onto the reef rocks and seven crew had to be evacuated by helicopter.

Norwich lost 4-0 to Liverpool in a televised match with their team lacking too many regular defenders with the most important of which John Newsome being away for the birth of his latest baby.
