A personal story
More than 40 years, told day by day
A shock concerning Wiggly’s play Blithe Spirit after I had visited The Hayling View to work and messaged Diana.
Wiggly and I enjoyed a salad at the Anchor in Tempsford whilst I reviewed her mornings work but then learnt that the play would have to be postponed due to a serious illness as Cathy has been suffering from breast cancer.
Tiredness overwhelmed me and then I fell asleep dictating my journal to Wiggly
I tried to get us up and breakfasted at a reasonable time and then we walked Sam together with me helping Wiggly learn her lines for Blithe Spirit.

An early start for a meeting with Redgrave Parish Chairman, Cllr Roger Gwynn. He and his wife were very supportive of my Redgrave plans.
Sarah was keen to move in and so I had several hectic negotiations with contractors in Diss for a bathroom for the shop flat.
It was a lightening visit to the boat and back to in St Neots by 7.30pm for a meeting of the Town Council group and they supported Wiggly’s letter which I had dictated.
I spent the evening with Nigel, trying to play snooker
We were in for an early start as I had arranged a meeting with Redgrave Parish Chairman, Cllr Roger Gwynn, at 9.00am in the village.

Recovery and working day reconciling statements for my building society and VISA accounts.
Wiggly made us a lunch of Cheese & Tuna on toast and then a beautiful seafood Fu Yung later before she went out to her rehearsal for the evening.
The one room suitable for their purpose had no light bulbs and they could only rehearse until dusk
I let Wiggly lay in for a couple of hours while I got up and logged in to Cix so as to read and reply to my messages before starting a hard and hot day's work in the office, catching up on mail and preparing for tomorrows visits.

Some local activities in Norfolk and then to Carrow Road to watch City draw against Sunderland before driving back to St Neots via Barton Mills to walk Sam.
The house was hot after being locked and closed up all day and so I stayed up and watched Match of the Day before going to bed at a cooler time.
We were up a little later today after yesterday's activity.

A restful and fulfilling morning to start our working day at Horning before off to Norwich for a swimming session at the Aquapark on another hot day.
Then a rush to get to Cromer to collect our prebooked tickets and see the evening performance of Waterworld, Kevin Costner's latest "epic".
We stayed in Cromer awhile listening to live rock music at the King's Head and taking a walk along the pier and esplanade.
I had telephoned Diana and discussed further her demands of yesterday, and we could only agree to disagree
We lay in this morning awhile after the previous nights exertions and enjoyed some mutually satisfying sex before getting up.

Cruising from the Stracey Arms to Horning with Wiggly at the wheel and me philosophising and then home via McDonald’s for lunch and then Redgrave.
Some time with Sarah’s family at the shop and then trouble with Diana as I dropped by The Hayling View at the end of a hot day.
It was already both the warmest and the driest summer since the 17th century.
We made the effort to get up quite early, taking Sam for a walk along the flood banks to let him let off steam.
