Harry's Karate Kamp, Blackshore, Southwold - 5th July 2025
The Karate/Tae-Kwondo class that Harry's in is doing its annual camping trip to the Harbour Campsite near the sea and the River Blyth in Southwold. There's not actually anything in the way of actual Karate happening, but there are plenty of trips to pubs and an entertaining Treasure Hunt on the Sunday - which includes a side-quest to find a rock which "looks like Sean" - and which goes to show that despite having been somewhere loads of times it is still possible to find things never before seen. In between, we also do pizza at the Lord Nelson with Mirka and Jake, and Nosher and Harry get the ferry over to Walberswick to do a bit of crabbing.

Huts on Blackshore Quay
Isobel and Harry again
A less-conventional hut
