Christmas has come - and gone.
We had a proper "Norfolk" few days.
23rd December - went on seal watch down towards Horsey/Waxham followed by chips and beer as we made our way home in the rain.
Christmas Eve - last minute shop for fresh bits and bobs in Sheringham. Jenny did a charity bag-pack at Tesco's in Aylsham before going to work at The Roman Camp and the rest of us met up with Grandad and Sue for lunch in The King's Head in Holt. Home in time for Carols from Kings and settle in for Christmas. Did manage a quick pint in Sheringham as Jenny became desperate for a kebab.


Christmas Day, girls awake early but didn't get too excited till about 7:00am. Present opening fest ensued. Had a good visit to Granny's before she went for what turned out to be a really good lunch. Home to get on with our "lunch" and await Jim to arrive. Nice relaxing time with games and nibbles and drinks till we sat at about 5:00pm for a turkey and ham roast. Jim had brought a couple of top wines which helped wash everything down. Managed to stave off the telly till mid evening but was happy to snooze and flick around the channels till bed time. Oh yes - even managed a game of basketball!









Boxing Day - had to "do the dip".It was much warmer than usual down on Cromer beach though the sea was very cold. Anne (80) was my swim partner - brave old bird.  Met up with an old friend of Billy's (Barney) - the links are far too congruous to explain and detail without writing a book about it. The rest of the day was spent with my brothers at Dad's house in Langham. Super food, games, pressies, a walk, more food and a slide show.
