Would any visit be complete without a quick look at Wendi’s escapades? I think not. Like countless invading armies before her, Wendi has stormed through this little corner of England mollifying the natives, confiscating booty and laying waste to every flea market in her path. There are many here in Suffolk that will long remember that fateful autumn when “Wendi the Fearless” extracted many a treasure and stole not a few hearts from these fair shores.
Making Friends
The Tallest Bobby In Bury St. Edmunds
With Fred At Sandringham
Fred said he worked directly for the Royal Family for over twenty years and had indeed met the Queen, but was sworn to secrecy and could not reveal any of the juicy bits Wendi longed to hear.
Making friends with Mr. Sausage
We met Terry for drinks at the Ivory Cafe. He is the largest producer of sausage casings in the world. Not just anyone can look at pig intestines and think “opportunity”.

Hi Bruce, we are enjoying your blogs very much! And we are very curious about what is upcoming next, in the land of the rule of two…
Sabine,
Thanks for your kind comments.
It’s hard to say what’s coming up but we may find something rotten in Rotterdam or perhaps something dishevelled in de Hague.
Wendi, I love seeing you having a great time wherever you go. You both know how to get the best out of life. Just wish I could go flea market shopping with you–I still remember Paris.
Thank you so much for sharing! Looks like a fabulous time. Love and miss you-
Heather
