David A Broad
A personal story
More than 40 years, told day by day
Some drizzly and warmer days up to 90sF but it was fine for the election which went well for us. Helping and advising the LibDems new reign at the St Neots Town Council meeting and their enlarged group on the District Council as well as reconciling problems at the St Ives Branch LibDems.
My health was a major issue this month as I suffered from an acute food poisoning rash. Some mixed experiences with Wiggly but I still made arrangements to rent 3 Park Way for us as my missive to Diana followed.
After some last ditch reconciliation attempts, Diana shut the door sharply in my face at The Hayling View saying, "Girls, Dad does not live here any more" finalizing our separation.
A Norfolk holiday with Wiggly at Harnser and aboard The Paxton Princess. Tory leader John Major was offering himself for re-election as his authority over his Conservative party was waning, as England were winning their international Rugby matches.
Fighting in the former Yugoslavia where Bosnian Serbs are still holding British United Nations peacekeeping troops captive as hostages to ward off further air-raids. More of the UN Hostages are being released from Bosnia and the immediate crisis seems to be over for the moment.
I was not thinking very much about the weather this month but there was a mix of drizzly days, before some sunnier but warmer times arrived with temperatures touching the low 90sF at one point.

Working in Horning cutting the lawns as temperatures touched the low 90sF locally.
Then down to The New Inn for lunch in the Jolly and back to Paxton to collect Diana and Debbie for the trip to Kimbolton to see Della in her last Prep play.
After dropping them home, Diana shut the door sharply in my face saying, "Girls, Dad does not live here any more".
A good night on the boat, despite my sore ribs, and I was the first up and getting showered and shaved ready to take Sam for a walk.

Leaving Berney Arms late but just in time to get under the Bure bridges but stopping in Yarmouth before cruising home to Horning.
John Major's authority over his Conservative party is waning as his Welsh Secretary and fellow cabinet minister John Redwood decided to stand against him in his "confidence" leadership election.
Slept well after our meal in the pub the previous night and then slept in as my organiser alarm failed to sound.

A walk into Lowestoft for shopping then re-fuelling at Oulton Broad before cruising to Berney Arms via Reedham
Late up and a scramble to get ready and out with Sam on a much warmer day.

The cruise from Yarmouth to Oulton Broad via Burgh St Peter, negotiating several low bridges. Then a nice meal at The Wherry Hotel
Up very early at 6.00am in a panic to make the low tide to get under the Bure Bridges after taking Sam for a short walk along the river wall.

Cruising from Thurne to Yarmouth via Stokesby, had a lunch of Cromer crab salad and beer at the local pub.
Calls from anxious friends before enjoying the sea front with stops at seaside cafes and the pier where we got seafood, pints of beer, lager and shandy.
A great night and some great sex as Sam was very good whilst we laid in until mid-morning.
