  1. had similar last week, changed password and ok now
  2. unfortunately one has to "slum it " occasionally
  3. well, packing today,travel down tomorrow to avoid traffic on A17,all upgrades done, everything varnished or painted to within an inch of it's life, looking forward to seeing her in her new clothes, afloat for 2 weeks
  4. wrong , dave has sorted the run from north to south for at least the last 2 years and had this one sorted as well, as i said, pointless advertising until the event is finalised. might have been good manners to have spoken to dave first
  5. are we having two flotillas then, dave had already set it up as he has previous years, just waiting to announce when the show is finally covid compliant? pointless advertising a c in c /flotilla if the show is cancelled
  6. cannot agree, even non boaters didn't see the pageant, was supposed to be a program about a water based pageant, didn't happen
  7. do they? 2012, the most important state occasion for many years, the jubilee water pageant,will not be seen again in our lifetime, what did the bbc show? more of anneka rice's backside and jubilee babies than boats , the royal party were shown along with the canoeists but little /no footage of the 750 boats following the royal barge. every one who applied had to provide a story to be invited, no mention of any of this, one example was a group of disabled ex-servicemen who crewed a narrow boat and took 3 weeks to get there.also many little ships from dunkirk. greg dyke head of BBC said they had done a good job
  8. after reading all this wish I hadn't asked, was only a rhetorical question, just curious as to why it's done this way.
  9. the iron =scunthorpe united
  10. update, surveyed 24th june, nothing major, needs sea cocks to waste water outlets and a few tweaks here and there, all to be done before we visit.
  11. thought you had your team better trained than that charlie
  12. exactly the point dave
  13. why in a marina with stern mooring do you pay for the length of the boat ,not the width eg, 30ft boat takes up 10 ft of mooring
  14. dont forget pleasurewood hills theme park just up the road from oulton broad, reopens 4th july, also east anglia transport museum , short bus ride away, both well worth visiting
  15. extension will not appear till 3 days before due date, mine was due may 29, extension appeared may 26
  16. you can see the beaches on LIVE webcams, try brighton pier or gt yarmouth
