  1. It said I was a statue.......................... amongst a load of pigeons.
  2. Looking forward to visiting the club house for a cup of tea and a bun. Will the grandchildren, 8 and 10, be able to have a bit of a flap about? Andrew
  3. Cley is of course one of the most important places for ornitholgists in the UK. I do not think that Acle is on many peoples bucket list. Where are all the visitors supposed to park? Will we need a bridge on the bridge to assist those who wish to walk from one side to the other..?
  4. We are doing the peace bit MM.
  5. As a matter of interest do all hire boats supply extra rope for springs. Andrew . Andrew
  6. Stern on would be good.?
  7. Not really. Just a topic for discussion. Best not to pursue any further if that is the interpretation. Andrew
  8. Are you allowed to move a boat even if the said boat is preventing you from mooring legally. Having said that I would be inclined to move it. If I was a parishioner I would have no compunction whatsoever. But that is a different story. Andrew
  9. You will have to ask Vaughan. If I remember he managed very well at Salhouse last year. Andrew
  10. You need medical advice. Now. Do it. Do not mess about. Andrew
  11. The Malsters at Ranworth used to allow parking for a small fee and have used it myself only last year for three days. Worth a try. Andrew
  12. I think that the worst nightmare would be if a young child was involved. I once asked a quay assistant what he would do. He replied that they are under strict instructions not to enter the water under any circumstances. However he did say that this would be a big ask. The brave actions at Great Yarmouth last year demonstrated how difficult it can be. Andrew
  13. http://www.edp24.co.uk/news/water-safety-week-warning-1-5492183 Would you go in? Andrew
  14. I can remember the same scene in Norwich, many years ago now. Cattle would be driven from Trowse up towards Bracondale, down Ber Street and to the Norwich market. Then a few hundred yards away, in a different direction Carrow bridge would lift and get stuck. At Thorpe Narrows a double decker bus and a coach would try to pass each other and get stuck. All good fun on a Saturday morning. These were proper traffic jams. Andrew Andrew
  15. Me being a bit thick as usual but what does secured by design mean please and what is the relevance of battery PIR with text messaging RP. Andrew
  16. Looks jolly good to me. As close to a "confirmed" intruder alarm you are going to get. Andrew
  17. Who is responsible for this disgusting mess. The 3000 private owners. The 800 hire cruisers, perhaps fisherman, or how about the general public. I think that a good start would be to find out and then to pursue those responsible with a view to prosecution. Andrew
  18. The solution is to stop people littering the Broads in the first place.
  19. Not to me it doesn't when I have to pay for it through my rates. Andrew.
  20. The remains of boats that were deliberately sunk can be seen on many Broads. It is amazing how long some of the wooden hulks have survived. Andrew

    I used to remember scampering up to your end in order to get a boat through. But for the most part by the time one tried to get through the "west bridge" and failed and then getting to the "east bridge" that one and a half inches had gone. And so had your tip! Andrew

    Vaughan. I recall you informing me that there was once a measurement system at Hearts Cruisers at Thorpe St Andrews which was used to give guidance as to a boats ability to pass safely through the railway bridge nearest to the boat yard. Was it for the employee's on the yard or for the general public. And whilst I think of it why did I not have one at my end? Andrew
  23. Nope. Can do a cat scan though followed by a lab report.
