We were moored up at Barnby for the night, the idea being to walk up to the the Swan for a meal, when a large holiday boat pulled up astern of us. Turned out to be a holiday crew of homely, friendly Yorkshire folk who took great sympathy on our perceived plight. Did we want to come aboard & watch their TV? How could we cook on a camping stove, did we want to come aboard for a hot meal? Did we want to come aboard for a hot shower? Such lovely people, seemingly a Yorkshire trait, but how could anyone actually, voluntarily camp on a boat? We felt humbled by their uninhibited kindness & concern but eventually they accepted our assurances that we were comfortable and there by choice. As we waddled off to the pub we left them enjoying their TV, each to their own but I suspect that my wife had unanimous sympathy from the kind ladies of Yorkshire! One of those chance meetings that make the Broads what they are, a melting pot of decent folk.
