Hello @martynch1
The log messages indicate that the BFD sessions on the router are going down and then coming back up. This behavior can be due to various reasons, including intermittent connectivity issues or misconfigurations.
Enable BFD debugging to get more detailed information about the BFD sessions. This can help in identifying the specific cause of the BFD session going down: debug bfd events
Check the cable on GigabitEthernet0/0/0.
Aslo, why same IP address on each sub-interface ?

This give some time to bgp neighbor to replay.
