Were off to the nether regions at some point today.

Norfolkish, no plans at all so we could pop up anywhere, even nip oer to the land of the sheeps.

I'll post if we come across anything remotely interesting.

If you're looking for 'remotely interesting' and totally different then you could do worse than look at a few Ice Age pingos. There's even a 'Pingo Trail'. My mother's ancestors lie in the Breckland, and its a fascinating area.

If you fancy something much more modern, then the 4000 year old Neolithic flint mines called Grimes Graves are worth a look. The miners used antlers to carve the chamber's.

I'm not really helping, am I?

Grimes Graves were only 3960 years old when I visited them ... There was a lot less history n those days!

Short walks suit me best even with the walker, and we forgot our national Trust cards too.

Attached ourselves to a group of veterans from BAe Brough.
" I put those rivets in ". "That's my welding.!"
Bit sad to see those warbirds like stuffed exhibits .

Not so they all fly from there, all are in the workshop, even the ONLY original actusl battle scarred spitfire that flies, there is another that claims to be ordinal but it's built around data plate the rest is either new or found parts, well worth a visit.

Found a forest for Friday night, lots of hooting and other noises, well pookey.

Tried to stay at Southwold in two places but lots of new signs with impending DOOM on them, so moved on, found another forest clearing, tonight it's Newmarket near the racecourse.

And we all know why bears choose a forest

And we all know why bears choose a forest

For their picnics? 'If you go down to the woods today, you're in for a big surprise, If you go down to the woods today, you'll never believe your eyes ...'

My original answer wasn't very good; in fact it was crap ...

Pity you didn't mention that before you went. We regularly visit Southwold and always stay at a quiet little CL at Reydon. A simple walk into Southwold, or simply catch the bus.

I never miss a pint or three of Broadside. Adams say they have been brewing on the same site in Southwold for at least 670 years - small wonder it's a cracking beer.

Apart from a couple of times in 2006 when we had a small tent and away in Scotland for two weeks we have never stayed on an open camp site, we did stay a weekend on the Sligachan one on Skye but it was winter and closed we got permish from the hotel, otherwise we 100% wildcamp.
