After leaving Dot at the school I walked down a track to Colney Lane and then beyond, down Water Lane, which turned out to lead only to private properties. So I returned to Colney Lane, where I was hailed by a man who wanted (at first) to talk about his daughter, who had been slightly injured in a car crash.\u00a0It then turned\u00a0out that he recognised my name from Surrey Chapel, and he talked a great deal about allied matters, such as the Second Coming and healing. His name (I checked with Phil today) was Ted Holland, and he has a bit of a reputation. With Phil, anyway.<\/p>\n<p>After being talked to for about 20 minutes I completed a circular walk back to the school, and Dot soon emerged. In the evening we went with\u00a0Neville and Mary Thrower to Prezzo&#8217;s and then had coffee at ours. Neville seemed to have a bad cold, which made both of us a bit nervous.<\/p>\n<p>I attended the Archant coffee morning on my own on Tuesday \u2013 Dot was overwhelmed with work. Bit of a low turnout: Robin and \u00a0Shelagh were on holiday, Paul and Maryta weren&#8217;t there, and Brian and Tricia turned up late. Still, talked to Eric and Hazel and Jenni Downing. Afterwards I returned my borrowed umbrella to the bank and on the spur of the moment got my glasses tightened, as well as stocking up on First Defence, which is an anti-viral spray.<\/p>\n<p>In the afternoon there was a lengthy Paston Footprints Steering Meeting, which Karen forgot, but we forged on anyway. A much shorter trustees&#8217; meeting followed. Penny was out of bed but with her injured ankle raised. She seemed quite bright.<\/p>\n<p>Bit of a technology disaster day on Wednesday: paper jammed in Dot&#8217;s printer, and although we seemed to have freed it, the LCD dIsplay wouldn&#8217;t change. In the end \u2013 after many frustrations \u2013 Dot rang Rymans\u00a0(it was still in warranty) and they took it back and gave her a new printer at a much reduced price. I also took delivery of a new improved BT hub, but I daren&#8217;t use it in case it messes up David&#8217;s system. So it awaits his suggestions, probably when they come up to see us. On the plus side, our long-awaited chair (ordered in January) at last arrived and seems to be fine, or &#8220;quite good&#8221; as Dot wrote on the delivery sheet, since it had a couple of marks which she has managed to remove. It now sits upstairs, and is very comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>The chair arrived while I was at Blofield, having given Lucy and Karen a lift to the church there for a meeting about Blofield\u00a0joining us in the Footprints project. The meeting included Barbara and David Pilch (I was at school with David), the rector and the churchwarden. Afterwards I took Karen back to the station to catch a bus, and then delivered Lucy to North Walsham station, where her car was parked.<\/p>\n<p>Today has been overcast but warm. I went to Morrisons, partly on behalf of my brother, then after lunch took the food round to him and picked up some washing. I also got some cash for him. Dot has been in and out and is at present at a &#8220;celebration&#8221; evening at the school where she is a governor. She is not enjoying it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cringleford turned out to be slightly more interesting than expected.
