105. Norfolk Rhapsody
February 14, 2011
A few days away in Norfolk, and we’re enjoying the big skies and Netherlandish light (when the sun shines, which it did this afternoon). Snowdrops are flowering in the churchyards.
We also enjoyed the French proprietor of an excellent wine merchant in nearby Wroxham (we went in to buy a bottle and ended up with a dozen); he had that wonderful French trait of knowing exactly what you should want and leading you along until you see it: ‘Well, you can buy that Pouilly-Fumé, but I won’t sell it – I’m going to sell you wines that you don’t know…’ And he did. And the prosecco was superb. Which accounts for the shortness of this post.
