  1. Neil a very worthy cause indeed. And a way of the boating fraternity to give something back, to the people on the front line of Broads services.
  2. All I will say is it easier to get Down than it is Up.
  3. Depends on your outlook Matt. The taps are on the front of the posts. You are stood at the back.
  4. Problem is a chainsaw never has a fuel shut off valve. Not in the 50 plus years I serviced them anyway.
  5. There are 5 hydro stations in the UK that produce from 160Mw to 1728Mw and most can be online within 60 seconds. https://www.nsenergybusiness.com/features/hydroelectric-power-stations-uk/ There are lots more supplying smaller amounts dotted across the British isles.
  6. Most hairdryers nowadays are in the 2000 t0 3000 watt range so 8.3 to 12.5 Amps draw. So with a 3000 watt one it would only run that and a few lights on 16amps. Remember 16 Amps is the trip not a target best to keep to about 13 Amps.
  7. Happy Birthday Simon Who would think you are old enough for a significant birthday hope the telegram from Charlie111 arrived🤣🤣🎉🎊🤣😂
  8. As most are 36-48 volts. And their batteries are quite large you may struggle for battery space
  9. Sure that was Grumpy and Incontinent
  10. Malcolm A very fitting tribute to your Mum a great send off you did her proud Never an easy thing to have to arrange. I'd had that talk with mine and wrote down her wishes. Right down to the music she wanted. Any Son or Daughter I think should broach this subject. Yes I know it's a hard thing to say to someone but, does save a lot of grief and anguish of, did I get it right for them.

  12. Hi Meantime Thanks for that. You write about my childhood stomping grounds. Many hours of walking those paths usually with our Collie forging ahead of me. Born in New Road, the Waveney forest was, Forestry commission in my time there. So full of wartime training materials, live shells and bullets and even a couple of rifles, were collected and placed by certain marked trees in the woods for the army to collect and dispose of. So sorry to hear of the demise of the Decoy. Like so many village pubs it used to be a buzzing core of the village. The landlord and landlady were firm friends of ours and would visit us when we moved up North. Although I come back to Norfolk regularly. I haven't been back there for about 3 years. So lost touch.
  13. Had my fourth on on the 24th September, Moderna Biavalent. Sore round injection site and lower arm for about two days, slight headache for about 4 hours. That was it.
  14. Best time to cook Sprouts for Christmas 2022 Start on Boxing day 2021
  15. My hat off to you Ian. I cheffed for my pubs for about 10 years. 2 x 5 hour shifts 6 days a week. It blooming hard graft and would not want to do it again ever
  16. Helen if you are interested and some time you are mobile. I suggest Fritton church just up from St Olaves. They uncovered medieval murals under the Victorian whitewash some years back. Well worth a visit From St Olaves come through the village, Village hall on left just after triangle junction turn right down narrow road Church is by the junction to Fritton Lake.
  17. Just like the dilapidated St Olaves one did a few months ago. Over double auction pricing
  18. Yes! If you wish to read the Online Harms Bill in Full. 230 pages long https://bills.parliament.uk/bills/3137 the part you need is protecting peoples privacy. This is what we are preparing for on the Forum You may also wish to read the parts about who is liable for the fines if we don't comply.
  19. NCC have delayed the road closure https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/traffic/wayford-bridge-stalham-works-delayed-9282574
  20. Maybe also respect should be given to the 10,000 ish police officers from all over the UK. Who came stood on duty and saw nothing. Also to the volunteers who made part of the pageantry i.e the British Legion Flag Bearers at the Cenotaph.
  21. Just watched the funeral How moving a service. What pageantry. Only the UK can do that R.I.P Ma'am
  22. Truly sad .Still trying to come to terms with the news. Having met her quite a few times. Formally and not so formally All I can say is we have lost the most dignified person, when on duty. And the most wonderful profounder of wit, repartee and banter I have ever come across when not on duty. God Save the Queen. Long live the King That seems so weird. She has been on the throne every day, but one of my life. She had been queen 5 months when I was born.
  23. Holy water and Embalming oil no doubt
  24. Folkestone Air show A couple of weeks ago almost across my rooftop. Only about 500 feet up Poor quality but literally run, point, shoot
