title	A Trip Around Leeds Castle, Kent - 9th May 2004
intro	After the official end of the BSCC Annual Trip, much of the gang stays back to explore Leeds Castle, which is just up the road from our base at Lenham. There also happens to be a food fair in the grounds, which is a bit of a bonus.
dcp_9668	After breakfast, there's a chance for a quick wander around the Sunday Market in Lenham

dcp_9670	Phil scopes the plants out and test himself on all the latin names
dcp_9671	Fish!
dcp_9672	Guv wanders along too to have a look
dcp_9673	Walking up to the entrance of Leeds Castle
dcp_9674	At the ticket office. Phil even gets away with being a student.

dcp_9680	The group tree-hug a huge Lebanese Cyprus
dcp_9681	Sue wanted to do it, as this is something her sister apparently does a lot
dcp_9682	A Black Swan and its cygnets
dcp_9683	A view over the grounds looking towards the castle
dcp_9686	Sue peers over the bridge
dcp_9692	By the time we make it through the tour of the castle, the sun has peeped out. The gang have waited outside for Nosher to appear
dcp_9693	Wavy sits on the bin
dcp_9694	The living quarters of the castle. It has the Baillie family home until the 70s, and includes some interesting 1920-30s decor
dcp_9696	In the Fairfax Hall café, Marc heaps everyone else's leftover cream onto half a scone
dcp_9698	Wandering through the Baillie Gardens
dcp_9700	A quack-duck and little fluffy ducklings scoot about like little bathtime wind-up toys
dcp_9701	Looking at the birds
dcp_9702	Wavy and Caz navigate the maze. It looks small from the outside but actually proves to be a genuine challenge
dcp_9703	Marc and Phil decide which way to go
dcp_9704	Bill and Sue are lost too
dcp_9705	Most of the gang cheat by following someone who is receiving instructions from the mound in the middle. Nosher cheats by getting them to give him directions too
dcp_9706	At the top of the maze
dcp_9707	Caz wanders out. The exit is through an underground grotto, and so it's easier to get out than in
dcp_9708	Marc and Bill play about with the waterfall
dcp_9712	We develop lazyitus and get the land-train back to the castle
dcp_9713	Some Mute Swans
dcp_9714	In the food fair, the gang cluster around a chocolate stall
dcp_9715	Olives and stuff
dcp_9717	
dcp_9718	A quick return to the lake, and Wavy continues in his quest to wind-up a swan (in order to get a photograph of one angry)
dcp_9719	Some morris dancing
dcp_9721	A return to the food tents to get a tasty pork-and-apple burger
dcp_9722	At the exit, an albino Peacock performs for the crowd
