The threatened rain never materialised and the easterly breeze kept it pleasantly cool. Explored east Suffolk and discovered the very pleasant villages and the open countryside in between, a fast disappearing prospect in West Kent!

The Rumsy's again, this time for a 90th birthday celebration for my mum in Shimpley. A lovely feeling of arriving already knowing where everything was. Thank you for all the little kind touches.
