Weekend in Saffham with Liv and Richard

We spent the weekend in Swaffham with Liv and Richard. The unseasonable mild weather meant we were able to get out and about. Arriving Friday we had dinner followed by a few drinks in The Greyhound, with the gang there. On Saturday we took a trip around the market place with its stalls and auction, after which we jumped on a bus and spent the afternoon in King's Lynn. Coming back we went for a few drinks followed by a curry at The Spice of Swaffham. After breakfast on Sunday we spent the day in Sunny Hunny (Hunstanton), before heading home. A few photos are below, the rest are here:

Hornchurch v Corinthian Casuals

I went with a few of the lads to Watch Hornchurch play Corinthian Casuals, which Hornchurch won 3-0. I am in the background as the first goal went in from a fee kick, standing on 'Has-been hill', at the end of the game there was a huge fight on the pitch for some reason which went on for about 10 minutes! After the game we headed to The Junction to Watch England beat Ireland in the Six Nations rugby. The goals from the Hornchurch game are all online here:

A group of us went to the Islington Assembly hall for our traditional pre-Xmas trip to see the Blockheads, having a few drinks in The York and The Taproom beforehand. A good night out as usual.








Xmas trolley and drinks at work

The re-introduced the drinks trolley at work this year with Terje and Luke doing the distribution honours, followed by some drinks in the Dog and Duck, a nice way to wind down before the Xmas holiday.
