    The Duck's Eye View story, relevant but to whom? The BA, wisely or otherwise, financed one man's boating activity but was it wise use of public funds? The results might have some merit but in all honesty what purpose have they actually achieved?
  2. JennyMorgan
    A fact that blurs the truth. In fact it's now less than half, not that that really matters. Don't lets forget that roughly half of the BA's income comes from toll payers. Only half our toll is spent on the navigation, the other half goes to covering the shortfall caused by the recent reduction in the NP grant.

    I am quite certain that the BA/CEO would have made that statement. No, I don't trust them and I believe with good reason.

    Thankfully there are folk who don't agree and I'm quite certain that they won't go away.

    John, you have reached the only possible conclusion having read the above link. In any hands it is scary scenario, in the wrong hands even more so.

    The Chase

    JennyMorgan replied to dnks34's topic in Broads Chat

    I wasn't referring to leaders, past or present, but I was talking about a principle.

    John, I served for four years on the Broads Authority's Navigation Committee and petitioned against the Broads Bill in the House of Lords. I can assure you that the effectively unchallengeable control which would be obtainable with the Sandford Principle is the ultimate goal of a sector of the Authority.
  9. JennyMorgan
    Point taken!

    Distortion or denial?

    John, the search facility top right of the NBN home page is actually what I was referring to rather than Google. No need to shut up but as for this and other Broads related forum this topic is now well worn! The fact that the Broads is not a national park is in-controversial yet that doesn't stop some people, generally the same ones. wading in in favour of the lie.

    Or have lost their moorings for their residential boats. I wasn't going to comment further but Speed's comments deserve support.
  14. JennyMorgan
    John, this has been discussed in depth and suggest that you use the search facility. However, in a nutshell, the fact is that the Broads is NOT legally a national park, a fact that even the delusional Broads Authority acknowledges.

    I haven't had a bad life, have few regrets, in truth I would wish to come back as myself. However I would like to be able to time travel, back to a time when the Broads was a vibrant holiday destination, when there was more of a 'we are all in this together' attitude to boating, a more carefree chapter both in my life and the Broads itself.

    Been there, done that, another twenty five years I 'll have to do it all again!! I often wonder how much of Spray, built in the winter of 1908/09, is actually original. Looks like Brilliant is where we were about ten years ago. Re the antique bog, great rock garden ornament, we don't miss having it onboard one iota!

    That's the gin still dismantled then!! I wish that I could help but other than offering you a square on which to pitch a tent and a nearby manhole cover down which to shoot your slops I have nothing of practical value to a new age mariner of some vintage. However I can wish you a swift readjustment to the next chapter in your life.

    Mine is a dual fuel tariff, £91.00 per month heats and lights my whole house. £132 with BG, now with Ovo. That's £500 a year! Sorry BG, better in my pocket.

    Only surpassed by cocker spaniels and beavers.

    For the City dwellers amongst you here is a picture of a 'honey cart' discharging its cargo. It's what makes your Norfolk produced food grow so well and taste so good.
  22. JennyMorgan
    I thought that a steaming pile of 'muck' was the real 'good old Norfolk' smell, that and the Honey Cart on a warm summer's day!

    Not knowing what one was I just Googled one. I now know what they are and how much in Curry's Black Friday Sale. Like Fred I really wouldn't want one, yet another boy's toy! Time switches might be so 20th century but they suit this old codger and they don't suffer from signal black-spots or flat batteries.

    Stockholm tar, hemp and wet leather! Alternatively freshly cut pitch pine or 'proper' varnish. Of course the aroma emanating from the Adnams Brewery takes some beating.

    For what British Gas charge in comparison to other suppliers they afford to give stuff, and more, away! We changed from British Gas two years ago and I'm already at least £600.00 in pocket.
