  1. :wave for me, it's the chilhood memories, my mum used to love going on the broads & i used to love going too, & ive still got the bug after all these years, i just can't wait to get down there again, hearing the ducks laughing & other wildlife too meeting the friendly norfolk people & getting all that fresh air , & just simply being on a boat & that feeling that says i'm afloat, & when you get on dry land & you can feel yourself rocking, i love it, lori :Stinky

  2. I pinched this video from utube, i liked it because it was the same month & the same year as i was born , it was lovely seeing all those old wooden boats on the broads ,but the thing that interested me was the chinese boat going down the river,near the end of the vid , i had to watch it twice as i thought i was seeing things.lori

  3. That looked a really bad accidental wedge, it's a good job they had a toilet on board, i bet they needed it lol, i too always hire high roofed boats, am hiring princess2 this year, but am always very cautious when i get to bridges, ESPECIALLY at yarmouth, i ALWAYS make sure the tides right down before i even attempt to go through it.

  7. Hi all wd went down to sawley to the plank & leggit pub for lunch & popped into the marina next door, just looking at boats for sale, as you do lol, & look what we saw , a sea otter lol, it looked quite a nice little barge, but not my thing lol, & look what else we saw, post-296-0-03373400-1416935480_thumb.jpg an alphacraft boat for sale too, not a bad price either at£29.000 , not sure how he got it up to sawley though , the lock down the river both ways is on the narrow side, lori
