My aunt having kindly offered to look after the children for us for the day Bob and I found ourselves in the very unaccustomed position of walking hand-in-hand with one another with no hangers-on, bargers-in or runners-ahead!
We went into Norwich on the Park and Ride, once Bob had managed to get hold of the second ticket he hadn’t realised the machine was printing and that we needed to catch the bus, first to the Forum, where there was a very interesting display about Steiner method and in particular the Steiner school in Norwich, as well as some very interesting books and resources (Bob now has, but has not yet read, Steve Biddulph’s Manhood) and then (eventually!) to the Assembly House where we spent a long time wandering round the Viva Incredible Veggie Roadshow, listening to talks, chatting to stallholders and sampling some delicious food and drink 😀
Came back via a rather expensive trip to The Works, where we discovered why people rave about it and bought lots of Christmas presents and odds and ends. Perhaps it’s a good thing there isn’t one near us…
Oh, and while we were gallivanting the children were having a lovely time with my aunt and uncle and my cousin’s girlfriend and little boy. I asked L when we got back what they had been doing. Her reply: “We saw some cowpats!!! Oh, and some cows, and some sheep and a dog called Penny who is Auntie Norma’s friend.” The evidence for her statement is all over their coats 😕 Apparently they didn’t only see the cowpats 😯
but they are online – now, would it be terrible of me to leave the url?
No! Don’t do it! I’d rather not know!!!
Aargh! Now I’ve just looked and found there’s one in Cambridge I had no idea was there! I so didn’t need to know that!
