Chilling out in Suffolk

We have been in Suffolk since Thursday and I just feel like I could stay forever. We are parked up at Leni & Dom's place on their whopping drive and have been relaxing loads. I have a slight throat infection and unfortunately had a weird funny turn when we were out at a pub in Stowmarket last night but apart from that it is amazing here. Our friends live in a little cottage that they are about to extend and they have around an acre of land which is given over to apple trees, chicken coops and tricking brooks. There is countryside all around and birds sing constantly in the trees. They have a mentallist cat called Squeak that attacks anything that moves and their baby boy Huckleberry is 4 months old and a very happy little fellow.

We are off to a farmers market in a bit then I think we are going to pop in and see Leni's folks as I haven't seen them for years. We are trying so hard to keep to our daily budget but it is very difficult. Not as hard as London though, that is such a pricey place to visit.

The camper is working out great so far - it's really feeling like home as we sleep in it every night and have the awning out so can sit outside and keep dry if it's raining.

Hi Sam, lovely to hear how you travels are going - do you have any photos of your camper?!
