Cycling around Norfolk

A bike is the best way to get round this part of the country. There are hundreds of miles of cycle lanes that are deserted, even in the silly season. This photo was taken on the route I take to work. It's good to see Christa doing all the hard work.


Welcome to Norfolk

There aren't many hills in Norfolk, but that hasn't stopped this cheeky little girl getting some climbing practice.


July was a busy month for us. Peer and Stalle came with us for the move, and helped load/unload the 7.5 ton van I hired for moving day. A tiring but otherwise pleasantly uneventeful move left Morwenna and Christa in Norfolk as I went back to Bournemouth for a week to tie up loose ends. This involved finding a buyer for our flat, seeing my last few patients in the AECC clinic and and finally finding out whether I would qualify this year!

Someone above must have been smiling on us, since everything went well and by Friday I had graduated, registered with the chiropractic governing bodies, sold our flat and driven back to my two lovely ladies ready for work on Monday. Phew! That only left us the job of tidying up the new house, which was previously owned by two old bachelors in their 80's. Yes, its was as bad as it sounds...

Work is going very well, with more new patients in one month than I had in the college clinic in one year. Its harvest time here in Norfolk and there are plenty of back problems to testament to the hard work it involves getting the harvest in on time. Mandy (the principal) and all the other staff at the clinic in Diss have been very supportive. We couldn't ask for more.
