Back from Nottingham

Three days in Nottingham without email or internet access. I will make a point in future of avoiding the Nottingham Gateway Hotel. It had some good points – lovely moat; bright, imaginative, glass-clad frontage. But two carveries a day…? And no guest computer access…??

I rang Martin today to see if he had managed to locate the logbook for the Land Rover. He said no, but that if I called in on the way home from UEA he would have found it by then. The saga of the logbook goes back to the end of last week, when Martin first said that he wasn’t sure whether he or the current owner had it. Anyway when I got there, he’d seen me coming round the bend and rushed to the phone, simultaneously rifling through his desk in a two-pronged quest for the missing document. But to no avail. I think we’re still on track to collect the Discovery on Saturday. Otherwise we could be a one-car family if Naomi’s Ka sells tomorrow!
