11th April, we catch the bus into Norwich, and out to Swardeston, a Norfolk village with two commons, an upper (dry) common and a lower (wet) common. It also has a delightful walk through the Tas Valley. We continue the walk along to Intwood. The walk’s not too soggy, no need for wellies. Please come along with me
The Upper Common where cricket is played

The village pond… cos all villages must have one

The Lower Common, beloved of dogwalkers

Then across the road… oops, watch out for tractors

And into the meadows… we walk the dry path, at the top and leave cattle and heron to wade through the mud

I’ve been complaining the lack of rain, cos I’m having to water the garden, and my water is metered. Then overnight the heavens opened and spilled a month’s worth (so it seemed) and still it rains, and tomorrow forecast too (which is a nuisance cos we’re heading out to visit another part of the coast) š
