I’m hoping to clean my car today – I’ve been psyching myself up for it all week, but it’s raining steadily this morning, and shows no sign of abating, so it will have to wait for another day.
We are invited to join my wife’s youngest son (and his wife, and our youngest granddaughter) at Mayhem (a soft play area) in Marsham. It seems a reasonable way to pass a rainy Sunday, so my wife takes the dog for a quick soaking and then we drive over to Marsham. My wife gets landed with the job of keeping an eye on our intrepid granddaughter, while the rest of us sit around chatting and drinking tea and coffee. By the time both my wife and our granddaughter have expended their excess energy and we have returned to Southrepps, it’s mid-afternoon. It’s cold, windy and still raining, so my wife takes the dog for another soaking while I split a few logs and get the fire going.
