Ocknell 2017

Camped up at about 16:00, we managed to get our favorite spot at the end looking over a little valley.

Had a couple of G&Ts and then spread Geza’s ashes over a little tree in the valley. It was the same spot he used to watch looking out for deer and rabbits 2 years earlier and sums up New Forest camping for us.

Pizza for tea, followed by a terrific thunderstorm, lightning the whole works.

Next day we extended our stay and took a walk to the Royal Oak, Fritham.

Tonight chicken indian, rice and small naan.

Tomorrow not sure may move somewhere else.
