After Wiggly had a boring day at work today as I attended Della's Sports Day and picnic with Diana in sunny weather, but with the wind cold and then off with Wiggly to start our Norfolk Holiday with another memorable meal in the Floating Restaurant
Wiggly had a boring day at work today; the main feature being a departmental meeting to discuss the aftermath of the announced redundancies and the closure of the departments affected.

At least I could console her in the evening and we could start our holiday together. But before all this, the day started with a sound night's sleep and some nice lovemaking.
Then out with Sam and some quick calls to the agent trying to tie down the rental of the house in Park Way.
Then off with Sam to Little Paxton where I first met Percy by arrangement to pass over the St Ives Report and then settled down with Diana for Della's school Sports Day.
Di had made a nice picnic, which we took, and we got to the Prep and saw Della run her first race after which she came and joined us for a cuddle and the picnic lunch.
We got on fine for the day; Della was 4th in her best race and got the few points needed to allow her House to win the shield and that was fine.
The weather was sunny but, with the wind cold and from the North and us having not brought warm clothes, it was a bit uncomfortable.
Back to Paxton with Della this time where Debbie and Amy were sunbathing by the swimming pool and a chat with her too.
It was soon time to leave but Diana called me into my office for a private chat and cried and asked me whether I thought that we were making the right decision.
She told me that she was not sleeping at night and was very lonely and missing me. I replied that we must go through with this course of action, treating it as a trial separation if need be, as we could not keep chopping and changing.
If I gave up Wiggly now, we would never be free of her memory and it would dog our relationship anyway. On to Montagu Street with the trailer in tow, where Wiggly was home from work.
We both packed and loaded up and then left for Norfolk; stopping at Jim & Julie's house in Sutton on the way to drop off my cement mixer and trailer on loan and to have a mug of tea.
A chat whilst Sam ate Jim's food and ran in his garden and then on to Norwich for another memorable meal in the Floating Restaurant.
It was party evening with a large group there celebrating and singing along along to the music which made it fun for us.
The journey to Harnser; arriving in late evening. We unloaded our things into the Paxton Princess, left Sam in the car and then settled down for the night.
