It's quiet on Church Street in Eye
A Long Walk Around the Airfield, Eye, Suffolk - 11th February 2024
We're off for a walk into Eye and then around the airfield, trying to find the lost footpath between the two runways of the old WWII base, so we can get across to Fen Farm shop. However, we walk up and down almost the entire length of the runway but it looks like Cranswick has fenced it off so it's no dice and we have to walk all the way back via Progress Way. It's a long haul alright. Before that, we have a drink and a bit of cake in Amandines in Diss, and note that the Mere is so full that the water-level mark is underwater and the Mere is flooding into the paved around around it.
