Pigeon-Eating Hawks and the Mellis Beer Festival, London and Suffolk - 31st August 2013

We're off for a walk around the fields to see Chinner the retired police horse, then Network Rail's trained pigeon-eating kestrel is at Liverpool Street Station to sort out a pigeon problem. After a short trip to Harleston, we're over at the Mellis Railway Tavern beer festival, in the pub and on the common, where at the end of the night a crazy woman comes out to shout at us for leaving our bikes in a bush on common land, before starting to throw them around. Finally, it's the end of the era of getting the train back from London and picking Fred up from Peacock Montessori Nursery nursery in Stuston on the cycle ride home.
