My son (who has been on his travels for the last 14 months or so) is coming to stay for a few days (arriving tomorrow) so my wife and I venture out to Longwater Retail Park to do some last minute Christmas shopping, and then to Lidl in North Walsham to stock up on edible goodies so that we can prepare some meals for the coming week.
It’s amazing how a “quick trip out” consumes a whole day, and it is dark (and cold, and wet) by the time we get back to Southrepps. I take the dog for a quick walk and then bring in some logs for the fire while my wife is organising the unpacking of groceries and the preparation of our evening meal.
