I am so sorry to read this Griff. I do wish Shaun a speedy and full recovery
It's so very difficult for family who are sitting around watching and waiting, my thoughts to you, Mrs G and your family x

We didn't stay overnight in Ranworth but returned to HPC shortly after sunset. The sunset on the way was lovely.
We had been planning to go out today to Holt, but we feel like being lazy instead and probably won't manage much more than a trip to Latham's and a dog walk.
Stunning, thanks for sharing Helen

I so agree about the bath tubs as they are affectionately known. They can get almost anywhere on the Broads and there are some really nice ones available. Okay, so not as posh as some but I love them and hired plenty. We hired Dancing Light from HW when she was fairly new and what a beautiful boat she was too x

While waiting for the pilot to take you through Wroxham Bridge so that you can enjoy Coltishall.
Kindest Regards Marge and Parge
You see this is why I would rather hire a boat that will access most of the Broads system. How can you miss out on that beautiful cruise up to Coltishall Lock, it's my idea of heaven, it really is
I suppose I could slum it for a long weekend on Enya

I was just about to say I don't know this boat in particular but I know a man who does until I saw Chris has already posted. His posts on his holiday threads are very good and informative, you won't go far wrong reading them x

This is such a shame. A very pretty and lovely little place for a Latte and watching the world go by. Thank you for the info Graham
Everything seems to be changing and not for the better either x

What a wonderful but sad thread this is
I know it's not much but I always donate and wear a poppy as do my boys. It's important they know the true story and the sacrifices made by so many. The younger generation have every single one of those who fought and sacrificed everything for our freedom to thank for theirs. It must never be forgotten
Thank you x

Yep! All of the above and then some. The Sutton Staithe Hotel one of my faves as is The Wayford Bridge Inn. The New Inn and Ferry Inn at Horning are excellent for relaxing in their riverside gardens watching the boats come and go over a meal and a drink or two
I agree with you about not wanting to cook and clear up on your holiday but sometimes it's nice to cosy up on board for the evening and prepare a meal, my kids don't like it but that's another story
A very warm welcome aboard the forum

But what about if you like being bitten on the bum
I'll refrain from answering that. Not only because this is a family forum that should be respected and treated as such....I don't want to incriminate myself

Nice should be all year long. I've been taught to treat people how you wish to be treated yourself or it will come back and bite you on the bum

You are an absolute inspiration. I know this is just 'a forum' but your friends on here have got your back, we are all routing for you and I'll turn you into an Arsenal supporter if it's the last thing I do
All the very best to you, Marina and family x

Thank you Ian, love it.
Now all the non believers, the bah humbuggers and scrooges are just going to have to accept that Christmas is on it's way and there's nothing they can do about it
Keep calm, get prepared and it will soon be Easter

That is good news, thank you Graham. It's good to know it will be staying as a pub and not turned into housing like so many pubs now days. The views across Hickling Broad are stunning too x

This lot are so clever on here although I don't have a clue what they're talking about and what it's got to do with horses is quite beyond me
I hope it's all going well for you Biker
I love the title of this thread........Cruise on the Ouse and when you're moored up somewhere quite delightful........booze and snooze

Surely your wellies are high heeled Gracie
Oh my goodness! Santa baby, put these under the tree for me
We decided not to go to the display, it has not stopped raining and very windy, it would just be so uncomfortable so I've done a deal with the boys, x box and pizza for them and a bottle of Prosecco for me

You've been a tad quiet on here Ian, I was worried and going to PM you this weekend but it seems you've been busy doing your Charity work once again, you're a star
We were going to a big parade and display tonight but I think it may be cancelled, the wind and rain are relentless at the moment. The field it's being held in is in a slight dip it must be like a swamp, I don't think my pink wellies will hold up
Stay warm and safe everyone x

I used to do extra chores and save up my pocket money to spend at Lathams. I would buy the most useless things but I got them from Lathams at Potter, that's what mattered
My boys do the same but they prefer Roys Toys
We have caused a major thread drift, sorry John x

Did I just say that out loud

I didn't know whether to laugh or be sad either. When I saw the title I thought how nice, a lovely Fairy Tale to tell my little charges today but sadly not and so near the truth from what I am learning on here
We must keep up the good fight, maybe we need our very own Knight in shining armour to rid the Dark Knight for trying to destroy our Watertopia

I or my children have never felt the need to keep up with anyone. Boating holidays have always been the children's choice when discussing our holidays. If families want to go abroad that's fine, if they want a boating holiday that's fine too in my book.
What I do find heart wrenching is the amount of children that can do neither because their parents are struggling. They are the ones I truly feel for and consider myself very lucky to be able to make that choice x

Brilliant news Griff. I know the magicians are fantastic but Shaun must be putting up one hell of a fight. Well done Shaun
Not only has he got a wonderful supportive family around him, half of the NBN are willing him on too
Just reminds me of what a supportive community we have here too x
