    Has anyone checked that all the beer left on the boat is still in date? Assuming Robin hasn't drank it all.

    This technical boating stuff is all well and good, but priorities and all that....

    Still in date, Neil?

    I've never, ever known various crews who either knew or cared about that sort of thing!    :default_drinks:

    I agree with VerChugger. I hired boats from Langford Snr for 4 week’s a year for almost 20 years with new boats being added almost every year. He was quite a character who as well as having a passion for boat building had a passion for renovating Jaguar cars. I am glad that NYA are naming their new venture after him and that in the future people may ask Who was Langford?

    A warm Welcome Aboard,  Graham.   :default_welcome:

    Would you care to tell us something about you in New Members say Hi,  please?

    Here in West Norfolk there's road chaos with trees down everywhere. My 10 minute journey into Watton took 30 minutes and I was a lucky one, others ahead of me couldn't turn round and are still stuck there since 7am.

    Take good care out there, peeps.   :594c04ff2c94f_default_policesmiley:

    Just seen on this morning TV BBC wx forecast they say gusts in Norfolk could hit 80 mph  - That's serious, structural damage and the like.  Time to put in every reef possible, the rag-n-Sticks might have to use storm sails!  Thank goodness 'B.A' is tucked up in the shed, mind you at 80mph that's no guarantee she'll be safe

    There's no guarantee there'll still be a shed, Griff!    :default_badday:

    The EDP article refers to a victim surcharge of only £66.00 which suggests to me that damage was only minimal, not that that I am in any way condoning what happened or anti-social speeding in general. 

    Surely that's down to what they think he can afford, Peter?

    Is It Just Me? Broom Boats Videos

    Well I like the Broom video, no matter what the speed.  They are certainly not breaking any local bylaws and they have been doing this kind of thing on these stretches of the river right since the late 1800's and the river is still there in all its majesty.  I like the Broom brand, always have done.  Now if only I could stretch to a woodie Admiral or an Ocean 42.  I would like to think that the Broom brand could be associated with the NBN is some form or other

    I doubt we'll see that after some of the comments here, Charlie...............
