  1. You can buy mine only 24000 miles. Trouble is I will have to prize the keys out of H’s hands first.
  2. I have been running a dehumidifier and a small oil storage heater over the winter And my bill from December to March was £300 ish so I got off lightly.
  3. We went through just before 9 and there was still a far bit of tide running out 9-6 on the bridge gauge. Currently sat in glorious sunshine at Loddon.
  4. Think yourself lucky last week the A14 was completely closed due to flooding, the queue was almost up to the traffic camera.
  5. Most boats can have a holding tank and pump out feature. It might have had a thunder box type toilet fitted before I wouldn't be put off buying a boat without a pompous toilet, they are not that expensive to fit one.

    Flooding

    Just been looking at the Potter Bridge heights over the last 7 days . Max height was 5'6" and minimum was 4'9". Something needs to be done as even day boats will pass at these heights let alone Martha's motor boats.
  7. As they start at the beginning of April I might don my hi viz vest and do Easter weekend to help pay for the increased toll fee.
  8. I’m booked in for a Vulcan flight later this year. Can’t wait as I have a soft spot for these magnificent birds.
  9. See JA Be careful what you wish for 😂
  10. Wait until you go past St Bennett at least 2/3rds of the moorings are taped off.
  11. I had the same problem on Nipper I had a stainless one made by the Fabrication Company at Blofield that I cannot remember the name of. I think it was around £80 and took about a week.
  12. The taxi rank is free but no electric until the BA come and turn it back on. Good news is the Pub will be open again soon hopefully by Easter.
  13. Only if she has a large bucket available.
  14. You could always go by water, I know a young lady that might be up for a trip, see does have form in this type of thing
  15. This is not the first time it’s had prop shaft problems. I guess they don’t build them like they use to.
  16. The amount of water coming in from the sea should be the same as what flows out, but the problem is as Vaughan stated there is a an abundance of run of water joining it from land so it therefore exceeds the ability of the water to flow out in the same time scale. I felt from the meeting that there is no joined up thinking between the various agencies to try and come to a solution.
  17. Be careful when taking out breakdown cover as most companies now don’t cover cars over 10 years old. Like most policies it’s all in the small print.
  18. A question on the Chase tonight was. Which area is home to 3 villages which have National Park visitor centres. The answer was the Norfolk Broads. But can anyone name the 3 villages. ?
  19. The dog insurance company does both the Focus ST and the Z4 for just under £500.
  20. I regularly used water to ballast Nipper down to get under potter. It went from 6-5 ft aircraft to 6-1 ft at the lowest.
  21. I did forget a few. Dolomite sprint, VW Derby, VW combi bus, Ford Transit motor home 3 Ford KA’s VW Passat and a VW mk 1 golf in bright yellow.

  23. If you buy a car over 40k new , secondhand you pay £500 odd until the car is 5 years old then it drops to £180. By putting it on sorn you declare it off-road Then when you re tax it you pay the lower amount. Only problem comes if you have a private plate you cannot take the number off on line if the car has been sorned in the last 5 years it has to be done by post.
  24. My uncle use to change his oil on a v6 Clio every 3000 miles. He use to give it to his neighbour who used it to do an oil change on his ford focus. Now that’s what I call recycling.
