Sunday.

This is a photo of youngest grandson, Guy. We've had eldest daughter Sarah, Mikey her husband, and three of her children, Amelia, 16, Lucy, 10, and Guy, 8, to stay this weekend. They came on Friday evening. Yesterday morning, Saturday, we motored over to Orford, and went crabbing. We caught 129 crabs on three lines during an hours crabbing. At the end of that time we set them all free a yard or so from the water, and it's really quite a sight to see all those crabs running sideways back to the water, their claws held high. We've never yet caught one that I consider really big enough to be edible. After lunch we decided to lay siege to Orford Castle, but as Guy had left his crossbow at home, and I had come out without any cannon on me, we paid to go into the castle and look round. We all enjoyed it. There is quite a good museum in part of the castle. Well worth a visit. We then went and looked round an art exhibition in the Methodist church, where it turned out they were also serving tea and cakes (very opportune), so we ordered (and did justice to) a pot of tea and a cake apiece. Lovely day out, and the children and I slept nearly all the way home. Going to try and blog another picture, and will (D.V.) continue.

Strawbs is really jealous now, she wants to be a policewoman that rides a horse in London.
