There is the catch.
Not really, there is only so much in the way that the BA can restrict access.

Fortunately do not have to attend the Norfolk & Norwich hospital very often but I always try to arrive at least I hour early, luckily I had brought the dept. telephone number with me as I waited an hour and a quarter to get parked . Luckily I had brought the dept. telephone number with me. so phoned them .
You can 'park & ride' to the N&N, if you are mobile that is!

but a lot less than 1% of people with COVID will die from it.
Is it really a lot less? I will state the obvious, 1% is one in a hundred and ten in a thousand, that 1% could so easily be a loved one. We all go eventually, but do we need to hasten the event?

2nd December, the legislation is time limited.
Regretfully the virus isn't.

This lockdown is just for four weeks, twenty eight days. Where's the problem in staying put for heavens sakes? Common sense dictates that minimalising travelling and contact with others will help constrain the virus so why not support this lockdown?

MM, it would be better if the information was consistent North and South, If the guidance changes to bring The Lakes in line with BA and the EA, I am sure some will still kick against it.
No doubt it will all be sorted out in the next 27 dayd
A real national park says 'come boating'.
A sham national park says 'don't come boating'.
Someone has boobed, but who?

Blue badges are a godsend! In the meantime might I suggest that they should apply to moorings on the Broads.

Boating may be considered as a recreational activity as well as exercise.
Turning an ignition key, and maybe pressing the starter button, is surely a day's exercise for some!

How many people actually winterise boats before December any other year.
Quite a few that I know! Their season ends, like the BA's yacht stations, at the end of October. Their boats are either slipped and into storage, or winterised, during November before the first heavy frosts come. This is especially so where varnish work is concerned.

All of which are valid comments, but I repeat, it is not for the marina owner to police this, but for the police to do so.
The same can be said of the Broads Authority.
Sound advice is what people want, nothing more.

(we are told one of the reasons for the delay in publication of the Landscape Review White Paper is due to the change in senior officials in DEFRA)
People don't seem to stay very long at DEFRA!

Well well well - another classic case of the BA seemingly getting the total wrong end of the stick!!!!!
The above, probably, also their usual alacrity in grabbing any opportunity to stop boating.
It strikes me that once again the BA is exceeding its remit, as well as jumping the gun.

Perhaps Broadsedge is in breach of contract by excluding boatowners from their boats.
-
I will suggest that Broadsedge has over stepped the mark. Indeed I'd suggest that they are taking over all responsibility from the boat owners. Not sure how insurance companies would view that, theirs and yours.

In a nutshell visitors to the Broads may be coming here and understandably expecting that National Park rules and Covid guidelines will apply. Should the uninformed visitor, unlikely I know, end up in court, then the defence might be that the Broads claims to be what it isn't. Seemingly ridiculous but not an impossible scenario. As has been suggested elsewhere, perhaps now would be a good time for DEFRA to come off the fence, provided that they come down on the 'right' side, my side!

I too saw the same F/B posting as Griff. Another poster there raised another issue, namely as to where is the boundary of the mythical Broads national park? If we take the BNP road signs as an indication then the afore mentioned NP legislation could cover a great deal of land outside the generally accepted Broads area. Will this come back and bite JP on the bum? I doubt it but that's not to say that I wouldn't welcome it!

The construction industry is still open, time to construct a new boat?
All that said, we can surely combat Covid 19, if we all work together.
In the meantime we had a frost this morning, time to drain the cooling system!

Good Fishing 2020

A toss up between bream and roach I suspect! For me the bream fishing has been very good.
