Christmas Shopping in Norwich, Norfolk - 21st December 2022

Nosher and the boys get the train up to Norwich to do a spot of Christmas shopping, with a stop at Pizza Express in the Forum, which has a massive queue, then the one in St. Benedict which is also full, and then back to the Forum, where the queue has died down enough to get a table. Harry's not interested in pizza anyway, so he surreptitiously scoffs some take-away sushi from Yo! on Chapelfield. The next day, Openretch finally appears after two previous missed appointments to install a fibre internet connection, then we pop into Eye to get a few more Christmas things.
