Wild Camping

One of Andy's colleagues has Norfolk family connections who own farmland north of Norwich, and deep within this farmland is a large pond/ small lake which we have been lucky enough to fish twice now.  The first weekend on just one day, and the second occasion for a whole weekend. 
On both weekends, I took plenty of study materials as exams were looming, and I needed to do some serious revision.   The place itself is a botanist's dream, with so many wild flowers and trees - most of which I can't yet identify! 
The owners of this land used to have a house boat - long derelict now - on the lake and use it for weekends - the boat has been taken out of the water and I think the plan is to renovate and put it back for the family to use.  There is a LOT of work to be done!
On the weekend we stayed over, we took Finn with us - although he didn't get to come when we were there just for the day. I think we wanted to try it out first to make sure it was a safe environment for him. Of course, he loved it and while we did manage to keep him out of the lake, we didn't manage to keep him away from the bacon!
