St Benet’s Abbey<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Trying to get back to somewhere near normal, at least as far as this blog is concerned. Still in a bit of pain, especially round the chest, but Dot seems quite a lot better. We both get tired easily. Insurance claims are in, though I had a call from an Orkney farmer about his damaged post. Had a bit of trouble understanding him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Sunday Judy took us to church, and I preached on love, citing our experience from so many people after our accident. Afterwards the congregation went to Eleanor’s at the Great Hospital for refreshments.Not all of them found the way easily. Sarah turned up a bit late, and Adrian was early \u2013 too early, having invaded Eleanor’s service. She asked us to make sure he left when we did; so I woke him up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Monday Dot cancelled her visit to the commissioning service at the Cathedral and recovered from Sunday: so did I, though of course I wasn’t going to the Cathedral, not being a DSO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday she didn’t make it to the Archant coffee morning, but I did. Quite a small attendance. Robin and Shelagh offered me a lift up there, and I accepted. Afterwards, however, I went over to Boots and discovered the glasses I had broken in Ballater were still under guarantee, which was a Good Thing. The y organised some new frames for me, which I picked up yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later on Tuesday Heather visited Norwich, and I met her at the station. She was on crutches from a torn calf muscle, obtained at zumba. So together we made a pretty pair. Dot joined us in Costa at the Premier Inn, and we had a long chat. She was doing a viva on a UEA student at the Maids Head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Wednesday Ryan came round to fix our TV, but failed. The HD went wrong again shortly after he left; so he’s coming again next week. In the afternoon Dot and I went with Paul and Maryta to St Benet’s Abbey. He took us down a narrow road which left us only a couple of hundred yards short, and we had a pleasant 30-40 minutes looking round on quite a nice day. Maryta only screamed at him a couple of times, once for doing an outrageous 42mph in a 60mph limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next day Dot and I walked over to Riverside to get her some allergy pills from Boots and a couple of things from Morrisons. We also got me a pair of jeans (Farah)with a waist large enough for me to do it up easily. Later I wrote to Andrew and sent him a few photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today Judy came round with some more food for us. She has been brilliant. She is also taking us to church tomorrow. The weather has turned a bit chilly, but it’s not too bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
