I am sorry but those juggernauts do not belong on the broads,just my opinion. can you imagine the chaos that would ensue with that monstrocity trying to turn round there in summer.

Hi Barry, I don't think the dutch barge is a problem, it's only temporary visitor, they don't get in anybody's way and I would imagine the skipper is experienced and competant to handle a vessel that big, though looking at it, it isn't that much bigger than some of the larger broads hire craft. I wouldn't mind a beauty like that myself. dream on Pete!!.

[Smellie but nice?]

Hi Carol, thanks for the history of Doris. very interesting I stand corrected and my apologies to the current owners.

Doris looks neglected, an unfounded assumption. hope the money can be raised to get her back to her former glory

in the future.

[Smellie but nice?]

Old Doris looks a little sad and neglected, it's a great shame the owners

don't take more care of these historic old craft, they deserve better than

this don't they . maybe the museum of the broads should take her in.

Hi Geoff, sounds like you had a good time despite the rain and the cold, not to mention the gales lol!!, great holiday tale thanks, enjoyed reading it. hope you get over the man flu soon.

Oh before I forget, that fish you caught, spotty like a gudgeon with spiky dorsal fin, that was a

Ruff or Pope, it's related to the Perch I believe. used to get lots of them in the 60s but don't see many of them now.

Hi Steve, hope you have a great time on the broads, let us know how you got on when you get back.

a few photo's would be good to. early morning/evening would be the best times to fish.
