title Evidence of Autumn: Geocaching on Knettishall Heath, Suffolk - 7th October 2018 intro We decide to take the bikes over to Knettishall Heath for a bike ride, except that it turns out there aren't actually any cycle paths in the area. So after a bit of pootling around, we abandon the bikes and head off for a walk in the woods and heath instead. This turns into a spot of Geocaching, thanks to a phone app that Isobel has, and Fred's recent geocaching trip to the same area a few months before. imgc2426 Harry models his wizard costume, with chopstick wand imgc2427 Harry cycles off across the car park imgc2428 The gang head off down a non-cycle-path imgc2429 It gets a bit much for the boys, on the lumpy grass imgc2430 A nice view over Knettishall Heath imgc2434 The boys poke around by the river imgc2437 Fred walks around on small logs imgc2438 Harry in the woods imgp5325 Time for a visit to the ice cream van imgp5327 Fred's got a whippy, flake and strawberry sauce imgp5329 The weir and pond at Knettishall imgp5331 Isobel with an ice cream imgp5332 Fred balances on a concrete drain imgp5336 A black labrador waits desperately for a stick imgp5337 The boys eat their ice creams imgp5339 A rural version of the gun barrel from 007 films imgp5340 We wander off back to the car park imgp5342 Fred does a bit of flossing imgp5343 The characteristic pines of the Brecks imgp5344 Harry roams around imgp5345 Interesting encrusting on the public urinals imgp5346 A forest road imgp5350 Harry clambers over a gate imgp5351 Harry runs off down the path imgp5353 Harry looks at some ponies imgp5354 A grazing pony imgp5355 The gang roam around a patch of newly-cleared land imgp5356 Another pony imgp5357 Interesting orange mushrooms imgp5358 Harry on a path imgp5359 Isobel and Fred, who's drawing a trail with a stick imgp5365 Isobel passes some bracken imgp5368 Isobel and Fred in the autumn sun imgp5370 Harry meets a massive Great Dane imgp5373 Isobel, Harry and Fred imgp5376 Fred's got a stick imgp5377 Fred pole-caults imgp5379 Both the boys have sticks imgp5382 Skeleton branches imgp5383 Fred reads the map imgp5384 Harry's off in the bracken imgp5385 Another map consultation occurs imgp5386 The boys roam along the edge of the road imgp5388 A knob-shaped mushroom imgp5390 Fred opens the old ammo box imgp5392 Random things are pulled out imgp5396 The gang inspect the contents of the geocache imgp5398 The boys read a listof messages imgp5399 Harry puts the box back where we found it imgp5402 The boys find a pony salt lick that's not a cache imgp5403 Fred waves a bit of tree around imgp5405 Isobel and Harry run around on the heath imgp5409 Arms up to avoid nettles imgp5410 Grazing ponies imgp5412 Harry walks the logs on the playground imgp5413 Harry legs it to the car
