I am booked for Amber Light 2 Starting on May 24th. It looks to be one of the Connoisseur Craft and a far cry from my usual flappy things. ⛵️
This is a new thing for me and my three friends are on their second boating holiday; we all were on the Thames in 2019.
I am a bit nervous but that’s fair enough it’s a big boat and I am skippering it.
There are no plans to go South; we will be at The New Inn on Friday/Saturday morning to catch the 3RR start, and probably Womack or Thurne on the night of 24th. Otherwise it’s going to be a low key potter about.
I will put my NBF burgee on the boat so do give us a wave.
I gave the meet a miss this year but would love to see any friends aboard for a catch up and cuppa/drink.
I gets tired just a’lookin’ at that.
Forum Flag is in the post Griff for the CinC shame you won’t be displaying it on BA but Papaver will be splendid too.
I have a swarm who set up home in a hole in one of my trees. They are still there 2 years later. 😊🐝
Actually they swarmed again last year and a beekeeper collected that swarm. The original hive stayed active with about half of the bees.
I am told that they move on of their own accord if not collected.
It was a close fought quiz between Grendel and Steve but Steve edged it! Bikertov got 5million points by ‘accident’ and got all but 7 disallowed and the QM got the questions mixed up 😂😂😂

There was a maggot throwing incident a while back. Broads Beat didn’t say what they were going to do, but they did sort it. Give it a bit of time and see what happens ?
