Back from Norfolk ...

...well about six thirty anyway ... a good break was had . Having seen the forecast for the rest of the week the decision was made to jettison the tent and go B&B - the right move in the end - we had some good weather - we had some bloody awful weather - stuck in the "middle of nowhere" yesterday during a 40 minute thunder / lightning / monsoon, watching the narrow roads flooding up to our ankles comes to mind - never mind - we dried off on the outside in the "Kings Head" in Holt whilst knocking back "Woodfordes Wherry" (mostly my drink of choice this week although I did have some Adnams and Greene King as well - in fact Mrs Smiffy was on the "Old Speckled Hen" in Holt). Big up to the barman in the "Kings Head" - when Mrs Smiffy threw her pint on the floor whilst wrestling with sodden clothing, he chucked us some towels to clean up, followed by a replacement pint - much appreciated ! So this week - Monday - 13 mile - Tuesday - 5 mile (following a 200 mile drive) - Wednesday - 15 mile - Thursday - 10 mile - today - not a lot !!

I've done a few snaps - for the railway enthusiasts, feel free to check out this lot

Some others - here's sunset over Cromer on Tuesday night ...



...and a windmill at Cley during our "Norfolk Coastal Path" walk on Wednesday ...



and the roof of the crypt at Walsingham Priory/Abbey on our way home today (Walsingham is the pilgrimage capital of England apparently) ...



Tomorrow - let's see if Mossley can carry on where I left them last Saturday with a victory over Warrington Town - yes I (now) know they lost at home to Radcliffe on Tuesday but .... obviously the big matches locally are at Stalybridge (home to Southport) and the Droylsden v Hyde local derby but ...
