    Carl Chapman's blog post may be a welcome indication that they have 'sorted themselves out': http://letterfromnorfolk.wordpress.com/2014/11/11/a-good-finish/ He also gives an accurate count of 23. Let us pray that they continue on their voyage without let or hindrance.

    The Moose is loose No, not a first for County ! This was in the middle of the car park field at West Runton (on 9th). As it is, I believe, a House Mouse Mus musculus and not a deer, it was far from any of those (houses). Totally unfazed, it snuffled around, surprisingly difficult to photo...

    No, it’s not Stuart paying obeisance to The King, but preparing to photograph the cute, little fella below. No, it’s not a shoe brush ! I just couldn’t ‘capture’ its snout. It was snuffling and rooting away, happily oblivious to its audience of three.
