I haven’t written a proper holiday tale but here are a few highlights.
Mudweighting on Salhouse, South Walsham and Malthouse Broads.
Watching the 3Rivers Race in Horning
Getting a look inside Spirit of Light
Eating out at Hotel Woxham, Kings Arms Ludham, The New Inn Horning. All good.
Ranworth Wildlife Centre and finding out from Timbo that Ranworth Dam is a dam. 😋
A bittern flying over at Horning Hall
A baby grebe riding on a parent’s back.
Norfolk skies.
Checking up on Brilliant and seeing she is fine.
Getting a couple of unsolicited compliments on stern mooring. (The others were a dog’s breakfast!)
Meeting Boatyman and hearing all about the meet.

Here is a question for the wise.
45 ft boat hydraulic drive.
How many miles to the litre should it do on average?

I will do a holiday report when we get home but the phone charging thing is a bit sparse!

Packing tomorrow and basic jobs around the house and then a start at about 10 on Tuesday for Norfolk. Lunch at the cafe and a shop at La Tharms next then loading and sorting etc.-
