A Raft Race on the Mere, Diss, Norfolk - 2nd June 1990

It's Nosher's first experience of the Raft Race on the Mere in Diss, where various ramshackle craft race around, ideally without sinking. There's also a bit of an event in the nearby park, where the Radio Broadland mobile roadshow is broadcasting live.
