Monday. It must be Waterpump Day

Today when I got up to take Reggie for his early morning perambulation there was a lot of activity. I am not an early morning person and so dog walks at 7.30am are a strain.
At least the boy was asleep all night and I was saved an evening earlier wander around the showground, doggy bag in hand...
Today the sounds are all of people packing up and getting ready to leave. Our closest neighbours went yesterday and another lot went just now.
The latter were parked as instructed but with their T5 VW they had a tent/awning almost the same footprint alongside us. There was just enough room to walk through.
Once breakfasted there are very few jobs to be done before we leave. I have the EHU to disconnect and the silver screen to stash. Claire has to wash up.
Next stop Snape Maltings in Suffolk.

We arrived at Snape and as before we go past the entrance and turnaround in the next parking area!
We end up in a different area of the parking between two trees. Access to the overflow car park is through a narrow gate and low hanging trees. So we turned around and parked on the way in.
Meeting Claire's sister Sally, then we set off for a walk around the site to the Malt café for lunch.
It started to drizzle so they went to look around some of the galleries and Reggie and I went for a walk around. As usual the camera came out.
I moved the van before they came back to a better easier place to see and to get out of. After tea, where I spilled water everywhere, we parted company.
The TomTom Max took us a weird way back through lanes barely wider than the van. I have her measurements stored in the Max.

Arrived at Waterpump CL around 4pm. Our pitch was marked using the blackboard as usual. There are three other vans here. Unusually two of them are also Elddis'.
Once levelled and EHU connected it was coffee and cake 🍰 time...
Now it's time to relax and maybe have a snooze.
