Thinking of Chelmer and his nature notes, we thought he'd like a picture of some very pretty primroses in Great Wood - they were lovely but brought on an early bout of hay fever afterwards!
Finally, in case we have to cross any rivers in India, Polly decided to test out her canoeing skills but sadly the Banana Guard makeshift canoe was a bit leaky - oops! Hope next month's canal boat is more shipshape. Polly was soon forced to abandon ship and go for a swim instead - it was certainly warm enough!
Suffolk Branch enjoy a bit of culture so it was next stop Castlerigg Stone Circle and then a final debrief in the very fine Cafe 26 wine bar which concluded a very successful training mission. Cheers!

Wow Polly, how did you get that lake to be the same shade of blue as your uniform - what a stunning colour!
The banana guard canoeing has to be the most original thing we've seen for a long time - love it - and of course the canoes in India could be leaky, so good practice.
Glad you had a successful trip.
Love the Norfolk Branch xxx
Polly says thanks for your comment but she can't take all the credit - it wasn't that original as she got the idea from Croc canoeing which Norfolk Branch pioneered as she recalls... She did line the canoe with a banana skin to improve the leaks but of course that just made the inside too slippery! She volunteered to test out the prototype for the furies as she drip dries!
Midlands Branch enjoyed seeing the photos, particularly the one with blue sky, blue lake and blue uniform.
Glad the training went so well.
