So it's Sunday evening. The first of July and we're back to work tomorrow.
It's been hot and sticky. We're both a little burnt and peeling, and tired too!
Saturday 23rd - Just mooched really. Did some food shopping and went into Town for lunch
Sunday 24th back to London for the Cure concert. That was Sunday night and hot. The gig was excellent if a little long. It went on for 2 1/2 hours and was mostly stuff we didn't know. So mixed feelings really.
Monday 25th - To Liberty's and Selfridges. Still in this not spending phase and was really put off by the obscenity of what people are buying. Just stuff that isn't needed and won't be appreciated. I did though buy two cheap white non-work shirts: part of new image. Then train back to Norwich.
Tuesday 26th - To the boat. Hot! We went from Coltishall to St Bennet's Abbey for the overnight. Very good journey and a peaceful nights (early) sleep
Wednesday 27th - On to Potter Heigham and filled up with water. Then under the bridge for the first time. About 6ft 4, so not a problem. On to Hickling for a couple of pints at lunchtime. Then, it was still early, we came back and stayed overnight at Womack Island.
Thursday 28th - We're both fairly burnt and hot. Pootled all the way back to Wroxham for a coffee and then home. We came back a day earlier than planned simply due to the heat.
Friday - Sunday - just stayed around Norwich. Had a mooch with Rachel on the Saturday (Simon had car trouble). And now winding up for work tomorrow
Something more than just learning a new language. Not so simple as that. Learning a new language implies having already learnt the first one. Learning a new language isn't just about the words. There is the context, the history, culture, and sense. There is the need to read and read and read. To observe, feel, and breathe. Now that's learning
