  1. Well after leaving wroxham we had a pump out, the boat not lol, & haf a run down to ranworth broads & passed a nice looking wherry , but it was but it was very busy, so we moored on the other side just round the corner,& we thought it was free, til a little man came & said £3.50 please , but if you're stopping overnight it's £6.50 , so we just stopped for a couple of hours & had abit of lunch, then we sauntered down tosouth walsham broad & moored just down the river from it, it's a really quiet spot apart from being a flight path lol, we might a another newcomer to our site, someone was asking about our boat , as he'd looked at herbert woods & said it was too expensive for him, & i said that if he needed any info on anything to have a look on our site & i gave him one of the cards with nbn on. Lori

  16. Hi jawsorca , the reason i know ir's closed is because we were down at yarmouth, as we had to go back because of our engine prob.lori
  17. Hi all , to anyone thinking of going over breydon, you're out of luck, it's closed to traffic this morning because of fog, it's really bad today. Lori
  18. I must admit john i did get alittle worried , especially with the currents down here, but i do know alittle bit about engines, so thought it best to get back to yarmouth,the engine was redhot & there was oil on the river at the back, all the boaters were looking at us gone out, wondering why we'd come back lol. Lori
  19. Hi dajen, yes i did check the filters & the oil & the water lol. Lori
  20. Today we went into great yarmouth , had a great day , but when we came back there was very loud music which lasted for ages that was coming from a caravan site across the river, so we decided to head back to stracey, we'd only just set off when the oil light alarm went off, then the engine light alarm started screaming at us, so we had to come back ,but we'd checked everything earlier & it was all fine apart from the oil, which was alittle low, but we switched the engine off to let it cool, but when we tried it again there was no water coming out of the back, so rang engineer up & they're coming round tomorrow morning hopefully. Lori
  21. Last night we had a peaceful night, & it only cost £3.00 for mooring,all night & today the only song i keep getting in my head is we all live in a yellow submarine lol, because of that damn yellow colour boat lol, pleeese clive richardson paint it white lol. Lori
  22. Later on we decided to try & moor a acle but we were out of luck, so we went to stokesby & was yet again out of luck, ive never seen it so busy everywhere for this time of year, we ended up stopping at stracey just up from the tapas bar, & watched the beautiful sun go down & the starlings swoop & make beautiful patterns in the sky, here is a little vid i took on my fone, so it may not be brilliant lol, & at about 7.30 if was starting to get quite dark & we saw a boat go down at speed towards yarmouth, but i don't think he would have made it though, tomorrow we are going to yarmouth but not going over breydon this year. Lori
  23. Day two, we had breakfast then went to potter heigham & went all the way down to the marina but could'nt find anywhere to moor as it was chockers, so we went to where there were some quiet moorings as they were called, & had a little struggle getting off of boat as the moorings was low& ive only got little legs lol, so we went & did some shopping & bought some cream cakes as you do lol, welk they were just sat that looking at me saying EAT ME lol, then went back to boat for a cuppa & cake , we had a nice of that little house across the river, not sure what it used to be, someone said it used to be a helter skelter , & we later passed two windmills, one was thurn not sure about this one though, , this is weird, ive even turned the photos the other way round & they've still ended up on their side again, grrrr lori.
