At age five we moved to Norwich Norfolk. I remember big electrical cable spools. I am not sure what they are called and my sister, brother and I playing on them. My sister had a rabbit she named him Harvey Half Penny and he slept in our room. I went to my first school Lonsdale, an all girls school.
Gray capes with purple on the inside, is what we wore in the winter. I ate my first toffee apple here, experienced my first kiss from Mathew Alan and experienced my first fire practice. This was very bad I cried and was told that my sister who was seven years older than me was not crying, my thought at that time was "well she has not left her doll in her class". I remember my sister sewing a gingham apron, it was purple. I also learnt that making noise was not breaking a window. We saved hedgehogs in the winter and my brother made model airplanes. It was a time I look back with some fond memories. I cried at school and my teacher sat me on her lap and played the piano that was in the classroom. Her and the class sang Jesus Loves me , as I sat on her lap. To this day it is one of my favorite songs and I love the memory to pieces. I hold it dear to my heart. As is the day it snowed and we were allowed to open those big class windows and catch snowflakes with our hands and tongues and eat it.
So this is the first walk down memory lane in Norwich, hope your stroll down the road with me another day.
Wishing you lots of Tasty English Delights
There's always room for one more.
