Signs of spring in Sara country. The trees were full of pied wagtails.

Carer's break at the local garden centre cafe. Enjoying a quiet hour to write, not to mention a sneeky scone!

Secret Norfolk. Did anyone else know we had a canal as well as the Broads? Abandoned now but volunteers keep it clean and the water running.

Went to Cromer Pier to see the Christmas show. Had a lovely catch up with our friends in the cast and crew. So wonderful to see them all again. It's a wonderful show. Do treat yourself to a seat or two if you're in the area.
