A Fire, a Fête, and a Scout Camp, Hallowtree, Suffolk - 30th June 2022

There's a massive fire next door, as a big shed made up of two second-hand electrical substation housings burns down, requiring three fire engines to put out (several times, as it keeps re-igniting). Then, it's the summer fête down at the primary school in Eye, after which there's a BSCC ride out to the Victoria pub at Earl Soham. A few days later, it's time for an anniversary dinner up at the Oaksmere, whilst Harry's off at his Cubs camp in Hallowtree near Ipswich.
