Sunday night

It has just gone ten here and I am off to bed shortly. I thought I might see if this is a good idea. I will try and do a regular blog. You know how easy this is but I thought it would be a bit like a diary. Possibly full of nothing important. Anyway I have just said goodnight and goodbye to Zoe. She is back to Norwich after work at Sandringham tomorrow.

Mike and I are off to Cromer for a photocall with Richard Howitt the euro MP. It all seems to be going ok. Neither Mike or I have any idea what the outcome will be. My hope is that your Dad gets back in again because politics is something he is very good at.

We are having most unusual weather at the moment. Before Easter we had two weeks of lovely sunny warm weather and since then we still have the lovely sunny days but with a very cold easterly wind and NO RAIN. April is supposed to be the month that is full of April showers that bring forth May flowers but there has been no rain. There have been a number of fires out on the heaths and the moors because everywhere is so dry. On the way to Holt as you go passed Langham it is like a sandstorm because some pratty farmer has removed all his hedges including the ones next to the road.

The wedding was lovely to watch. The town did really well and there was a screen on the Buttlands. Best dressed windows, fancy dress. A little bit like a mini carnival. I had a bit of an upset stomach and so opted to stay near a decent loo, so I watched it all on tele. I don't know if you get to see any pictures over there but if you want I can always put you in a link to some.

Your dad phoned Grandma yesterday after much nagging. It is obvious that she is really missing Dad and she has also lost her internet connection whilst everything gets transferred over to her. She is quite concerned that she is going to be short of money but I am not really sure why. Anyway Uncle John is sorting it all out. We are hoping to get up to see her very soon.

Your dad has taken this coming week off work for the election but he has also said he will try to get up to see her. He is going into work next Saturday to cover for Roddy so I cannot see when but if he doesn't find time I think I will go up on my own.

Well that's it for tonight. Love you. (Only you can see this at the moment because nobody else is aware of it. xx
