Norwich Away

Took Mrs PF to Norwich on Saturday morning for the football and we stayed over. Norwich is a great town and will go there again if play them. Shame the weather was not great. We really had 4 seasons in a day. Sunny, Pouring, Cloudy and the windy.

Went to a rather good seafood restaurant called Loch Fyne was really really nice. Recommended.

Left this morning after a good breakfast. Mrs PF got a good deal on the hotel, over the internet it was £122 and when she called direct, it was £85 so result

Does this sound weird or does anyone else do this: When I turn the radio up or down I have to leave it on a even number ! Nope, thought it was just me :-) I also do it with the stereo and TV, Anything that has a digital showing of the volume level.

Baby news - Chosen One was very active at the football and also when we were out Thursday night it was kicking when the music was going.

Bought a few more "toys" for our jungle theme nursery. Also got some clothes, Thats it now though until we know if it's a boy or a girl.

Still need to get cot/bed and furniture sorted, need to get a travel system as well.

Footy News - Well we finally got a point and as Yazz would say "the only way is up"

AJ has had to pull out of the England squad because of an injury.

Todays Fact - A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why.

On this day - Aug 14th 1945: World War II ends.

Japan agrees to surrender to the Allies. The decision, which brought an end to the most costly war in human history, came after a momentous week that saw two U.S. atomic bombs dropped on Japan and a declaration of war by the Soviets. In the evening, 1,000 Japanese army officers attacked the imperial palace with the intention of seizing a recorded message of Emperor Hirohito announcing the surrender; the imperial guards repulsed them. The next day, Hirohito's speech, which asked his people to endure the unendurable, was played on national radio, and hundreds of millions of people around the world celebrated V-J Day. Victory over Japan.

Todays Joke - Thanks to Jane again over at Slothblog

1st day
On his first day on the job, the trainee dialed the kitchen and
shouted into the phone: "Get me a F***ING cup of coffee, quickly!"

The voice from the other side responded: "You fool, you've dialed The wrong extension! Do you know who you're talking to?"

"No," replied the trainee.

"It's the Managing Director of the company, idiot!"

The trainee shouted back: "And do you know who YOU are F***ING talking
to, you F***ING idiot?"

"No!" replied the Managing Director indignantly

"Thank F**K for that!" replied the trainee and slammed down the phone

Ah Norwich is a fine city, I know Loch Fyne Restaurant but have never been there.
