Poohsticks

We know our friends D&L from university days.  Last year, they, like us, gave up the conventional life in search of something more interesting, though they've ended up with a small orchard / farm.

L's family hails from this area (and every other cottage housed a third cousin, or suchlike) so this area has been a regular destination, and apparently it's compulsory to play poohsticks when reaching this bridge on a walk.

So we did.

At this point, there's a Steward's Enquiry as to why D's stick never emerged...
