There has been high emotion today. My Parish work goes on as always with the highs and lows of pastoral life. In the few gaps I have had today I have been moved by some emails about the walk. Alan Howard's response to this blog brought some tears to my eyes. Alan and I were at Bull Close School Infants and St Augustine's Junior School together. We met again recently after more than 30 years. Alan is Managing Director of Aspect Roofing in Norwich. He wrote:
"I seem to recall that many, many years ago, two snot nosed lads clutching a packet of chocolate biscuits, queued 3 hours to be first through the turnstyles to see Norwich play Stoke City. At the time Stoke had the one and only Stanley Matthews on the wing and a star studded team. Norwich beat them 5 or 6 nil and Ron Ashman played a blinder. On that emotional basis alone, I would consider it a privilege to join you for the whole pilrimage."

My MP Shailesh Vara has offered some practical support. He left Uganda in the 1970s with his family when Idi Amin expelled many Ugandan Asians from the country and in so doing crippled that country's economy from which it has never recovered. Mr Vara has kindly contacted media representatives on my behalf with the hope that the publicity will help raise funds for the school in Uganda which started all this off.
