Today we went to Gorleston, to have our backs sorted.Then onto Burgh Castle. Went round the church.Then lunch at Potter

Just crossed over the road bridge at BW.Boats are cleared from the water.Think the recure boat is still there

Not long until we let people know the name of the boat.Should all be completed by the end of the week.

Infections and hospital admissions have decreased,thankfully.

Very true.

Did give our lawn its first cut and planted out a few more 🪴 plants.

Today like tourists. We went to Wroxsham. Did some shopping 🛍. First CHRISTMAS 🎄 present done.Had a coffee in the hotel and watched the river.Then Potter more plants for the garden now cup of tea then a bit of gardening. First cut of our new lawn.

She looks a nice boat,best wishes will look forward to hearing more of your trips.

I agree,for two years most of us remained in the UK.Hoildays at home became more costly.It worked.If you looked over the last few weeks.Demand for air and sea travel Increased close to pre Covid levels.Its a balance ,but if UK holidays become too expensive, people will go elsewhere.

The boat is only a 2 berth.

Very true,however a friend of mine is going to Spain next week for two weeks,costing £266 each.This is where UK will need to compete. If not staying at home (staycation).Will perhaps be a thing of the past.

This post appears twice.Can the mods combine into one? Ian.

I've not been there since Covid. What I know for sure regarding catering.Its been knocked for six.Many were layed off,many never returned. My feeling the trade will take perhaps one or two years to recover.Of course the cost of living crisis has and will have an affect too.

Yes she's having some work done following the survey and some work we want done.As I said hopefully very soon.Marina is have a op on ther wrist by end of month. So think should get the boat by end of week or early next week.

She's a bit bigger then that!

Agree I certainly don't want to scrape under any more bridges.

Just a hint to our new boat.We will get under most bridges in future, without a problem 😊 🙂 😉

On a few occasions we had to wait for the bridge to open,or Radio the signal box asking for it to be opened.Sweetkingfisher was 8.3,so wouldn't get under at high tide.

I am fully aware,however they are both serious topics.And perhaps best dealt with in separate posts.

What's any of this anywhere close to anti social behaviour?

I don't do burgers so I can't say.Often At the Ferry House I have chicken and leek pie.Always good.Can't remember what I last had at the Ferry Inn.

Sorry to hear about the Ferry House and indeed Reedham Ferry Inn. Eaten at the Ferry House many times and one of my favourite pubs on the broads. For me it is good old pub food,doesn't pretend to be high end.Have been to Reedham ferry Inn a few times again never had a bad meal there.

That's good news. Best wishes Ian

Hopefully very soon!

Well today we got our new boat.Not just yet,but we got this instead. Should get the boat in a few weeks time.We called into Oulton today.Lots of boats on the broad today.Also lots at Great Yarmouth YS.
