A personal story
More than 40 years, told day by day
Setbacks training Ben and Sam with Jim & Martin and so I cancelled the next day's Novice Field Trial entrance and then drove home to Paxton to rest and relax
I had struggled to communicate with Jim at his house in Sutton the day before due to the noisiness of first his kids and then his dogs. I do not know how they can think clearly with all this clamour going on!

Diana and the girls joined me for a trip to Potter Heigham and Winterton on a nice day and then to Jim's for dog training when Sam safely retrieved a runner and then on to Barton Mills for night with Wiggly
Diana was taking the girls home to Paxton today but it was such a nice day that I persuaded them to join me for a trip to Potter Heigham and Winterton in the morning before they left.

Sam for a walk along the Crabbett's Marsh sawdust road doing some good obedience work and then leisurely time in Norwich before taking Di and the girls to see The Lion King in Cromer cinema
A leisurely start to the day, myself tired after the activities of yesterday and the day before and Di recovering from the food and wine of last night. I took Sam for a walk along the Crabbett's Marsh sawdust road and did some good obedience work with him.

To Burnham Market for an eventful training Sam with Martin Sullivan and then on to Horning to host Diana for a few days with dinner with Gerry at Mr Chann's
Up and then the journey to Martin Sullivan's caravan near Burnham Market. I had not received the map and instructions on how to get there due to the vagaries of the postal service again but eventually found the site and met up with Martin and his family.

Unsatisfactory sex with Diana early and Wiggly late but a better session with Sam retrieving well before leaving Hayling View for half-term break in Norfolk to host Diana
I slept well-enough but still woke a little early as I was not yet used to the time change.

From London to Paxton after witnessing congestion from the tunnelling fiasco was causing problems with an office block now in danger of collapsing.
A call also to Wiggly, sorting out a date for Monday night, only to find her depressed again after a poor weekend visit of her brother with whom she argued.
British Summer Time ended and the clocks were put back from 2.00am to 1.00am in the middle of the night; giving us another hour's sleep and lay in.
