Camping at Three Rivers, Geldeston, Norfolk - 5th September 2020
It's a return trip to the bucolic Three Rivers campsite near Geldeston, just in Norfolk but right on the border with Suffolk, as marked by the nearby River Waveney. Once more we do a spot of canoeing up to the Geldeston Locks pub, and toast marshamallows on the fire. The Boy Phil even rocks up for a day, to help out with canoe duties, and to do a morning jog with Isobel and Allyson. Before that, there's an open-air production of The Importance of Being Ernest in the Oaksmere's gardens

Harry flakes out
The audience starts to arrive
The players take a bow
Someone makes a presentation
Fred starts High School for the first time
At three Rivers, Fred's on the doughnuts
Allyson and Fred do some whittling
Time for toasted marshmallows
An idyllic view of the watermeadows
Harry and Lydia inspect the river
Allyson is on the paddle board
Harry by the sparkling river
Harry sticks his feet in the river
Harry and Allyson go paddling off
A small dog, with shark fin, float past
Harry gets some instruction
Harry paddles around with Lydia
Harry and Lydia head off up the cut
A nice wooden boat motors past Isobel
A swan looks around for water weeds
Fred has a go
A view of cows over the river
The Air Ambulance clatters overhead
A dog stands around whilst some tree maintenance is done
We head off to the boat hire shed
The Boy Phil and Fred paddle an open kayak
We moor up at Geldeston Lock
It's time for pub
There's some sort of US army vehicle in the car park
In the beer garden
Benson and Fred are back in the canoe
Phil, Harry and Allyson on the Waveney
Fred paddles our kayak
The others overtake us, whilst Lydia is out ahead
Fred has a go at stand-up paddle-boarding
Benson loses his ball in the river
We head off to the nearby Ferry Boat pub
A derelict cottage
There's some sort of boozy sponsored cycle club at the pub
The gang inspect the menu
Lydia builds a house of cards
Outside the pub, on the way back to the site
It's marshmallow time again
Our pitch
Harry and Lydia are off out again
Lydia gingerly navigates past a swan
Harry climbs up to the pontoon
On the way back home, the Billingford Windmill is now full re-sailed
