Sunflowers, A Quiz at Westhorpe and a GSB Duck Race, Eye - 29th September 2024

Wavy gets Nosher and The Boy Phil out to a quiz at Westhorpe, just the other side of Finningham. It's in the very impressive and state-of-the-art Westhorpe village hall, and is also probably the hardest quiz we've been in for some time. The next day, the Gislingham Silver Band is playing at the Scouts' annual Duck Race down at the Pennings in Eye, and then the day after that we pop down to the village hall where there's an art and photography exhibition going on. Before all of that, there's a field of sunflowers in-between Brome and Thrandeston, and somewhere in the middle Fred's brought the Lego Concorde for his birthday and does most of it in a single late-night session.
