Love the T shirt!

[It's All Going To The Dogs]

Working where you do, I think word of a puppy might come, and the vets will know the good breeders? 

[Face Coverings.]

It’s his Butch Cassidy and the Sundown Grandad look. 🤪

Above the eyes... never thought of that. What a missed opportunity!

I vote MM as NBN Poet Laureate

You lot have got no poetry in your souls!😋

[Polly’s Caravan!]

My inspiration! 😂 We will be fitting several oil drums, available at all good boatyards and our outboard motor. Should be fine. As sailies there will be minimal steering required, we will just rely on the windage to navigate.

Not yet but it will be! 🍷

[Polly’s Caravan!]

We bought a touring caravan. It is operation beat lockdown as much as possible, also get a base so as to be able to work on Brilliant ( which has just gone into Whelpton’s workshed for some surgery...hooray)

I can now announce that the caravan, or ‘Norma’ in honour of the ‘new normal’, should pass her boat safety test. Gas fine, extinguishers fine, CO monitor even fitted. Electrics also fine and nice new leisure battery. 

She would probably sink of course, but that isn’t on the test. 😋

I met a live aboard who made a distinction between live-aboards and sinister live-aboards. Sounded fair to me.

What side of the dyke are they?

Have you identified the mobile ‘poo’ you  found? 👍Possibly a ground beetle larva?

Is the solar panel actually practical or is it decorative? 

[Spring Gathering May 15th 2021]

This is a welcome advance notice of our Spring event.  All members are welcome.

We usually start with a Cruise In Company from Ranworth, to Salhouse Broad,  with the main event activity then at Salhouse.

There will be sign-up opportunity nearer the time, this ‘heads up’ is so that hirers can book their boats.

[Well, Is It Busy?]

Would my caravan go?

[Coronavirus And The Broads]

Quite 

[Coronavirus And The Broads]

We are planning a flying visit to Whelptons this week, but with Phill shielding it is a logistical nightmare.

[Coronavirus And The Broads]

Nobody remember the Mods and Rockers fighting at Hastings then?  

[Mudweighting (northern Broads)]

The outer broad at South Walsham is a lovey spot.

[My Day]

For the avoidance of doubt...we drove past! 😋

[My Day]

We drove round Rushden Lakes on our way back from Waitrose. The queue for Primark was about 150 people. M&S nil, Boots 2, Clark’s Shoes 3. I am sure a lot of them were getting kids  clothing as three months is a lot of growing time.

[My Day]

Thank YOU.
