Pinebanks -- formerly one of the best company-owned sports grounds in the UK. Carefully manicured bowling greens, tennis courts, football and cricket pitches . . . now, a shadow of its former self, awaiting transformation into "executive homes." Thanks, Aviva.

Norwich Cathedral, two ways. (We actually spent most of the day sitting in a traffic jam on the M25, but this is more picturesque.)



Boxing Day

Christmas Day

Christmas Eve

Last-minute shopping in Norwich: the Royal Arcade and the market.
