Anyone For Pork Pie Ice Cream?

The Pie Master and Josie went to the Norfolk Dog Day, so it was going to be pieless... No one was selling Pork Pie flavour Ice Cream - a delicacy produced Morelli's ice cream parlour at London store Harrods. However we did meet Sarah Pettegree of Bray's Cottage, so we just had to sample one of her "Naked pork pies"! Elsewhere in Norfolk, pie munchers sans pies were working up an appetite for canapés...

The Walk Master reports: Starting from Cley village hall, ten of us made our way west across allotments then up Barn Drift before turning south west across The Hangs with clear panoramic views of the Salthouse Marshes and Cley Nature Reserve. Next westwards along the road, north across Salthouse Heath and down via woodland path and lane to Salthouse Church (St. Nicholas) for a sandwich break in the churchyard. At this stage we were feeling parched, so repaired to the Dun Cow on The Green, both were packed with people and cars respectively. After drinks onwards west over Sarbury and Walsey Hills before turning seawards along the east side of Cley Nature reserve then west along the shingle bank, hard going, and finally back towards Cley along the flood bank to visit the smoke house for various purchases. Tea, canapés and biscuits were enjoyed but the ubiquitous pork pies were nowhere to be seen, alas, as our generous provider had gone to the dogs! A tour of Cley church (St. Margaret) completed a balmy Sunday afternoon before the trek back.
