small, round, flat and full of ducks, with the odd shopping trolley handle poking out of the water?

dog fish?

but as outsiders not knowing the particular boaters involved and their apparent previous behaviour 99% of people will still say that the anglers behaviour was not justified, since only a select few seem to know those involved and considering the name and shame policy of this forums TOS may I suggest we calm down and just agree that social media is not the place to expect action to stop this type of behaviour. it has been intimated that those involved are setting themselves above the law to resolve this- but the truth is that most of the people watching this vide wont know that. So lets not get into any arguments here as by all reports that is exactly the sort of thing the people who posted this to youtube thrive upon.

from what I could see they have broken a bylaw by interfering with a vessel mooring, and that is clear evidence of that act..

surely the course of action would be to send the video to the Broads Authority to deal with, rather than just posting on youtube, where it will undoubtedly get views and comments, but wont get any action taked by those who have the authority to do so.

I have read somewhere recently that this is indeed the case- it was a report on the affect the flooding has had on local businesses- and also mentioned Martham boats and phoenix fleet amongst others.

mine has eventually let me log in (once i stopped trying to use the password I had stored) (it was down to the fact they let you log in by clicking on your picture my password hadnt updated in my password manager)

still not letting me log in with my normal password

any bets it was the cleaner pulled the plug to hoover the room?

just tried again and its now telling me I entered an old password that was changed a year ago, except thats the password stored on all my devices as current

my phone was ok and i still received no passcodes

yes, apparently I tried resetting my password too quickly as it wasnt sending SMS messages. from what I can see its down worldwide.

I thought water oak was a southern states of american species.

that must explain the chaos I see on the road, if you are just around the next corner

got to get an hour in the hot tub with a coffee before starting work in 15 minutes, its a daily routine that allows me to clear my thoughts ready for a day of work.

I always assume that every other driver is going to make the worst possible manouver at the worst possible time, that way i dont get caught out..

it appears some people are having issues seeing this thread, as you will see its still here.

well I tried, but they stubbornly refuse to be inserted the correct orientation (they rotate 180 degrees from what yours currently shows ok i had to change the file type to get them the right way up (and the name)

last year I touched bottom and barely made it off again by flooring the throttle and keeping moving, at that point I was rounding a corner some 20 feet away from the bank, just downriver of stokesby, and though it was approaching low water there was still an hour or more before low water at that point, since Water Rail has quite a shallow draught (certainly under 2 foot 6") I rate that as a lack of necessary dredging. how many similar instances have occurred without being reported to the authority. in future I will be reporting it to the BA and encourage others to do so too. and the previous year I had cut a corner a bit tight with the same result, down near the emergency / demasting pontoons (maybe a boat width and a half from the bank). in the above to suggest that any silt removed would be replaced with salt water is ludicrous considering the amount of fresh water flowing out, in fact with a greater depth the same volume of salt water would incurse less because it would have a greater volume to fill in the lower bure. see my previous comments on incursion, where currently because the water cant escape each tide pushes the salt further into the system. if the water could escape the salt would be pushed back each low tide and then only travel to the previous high tides mark again.

not really, I never got any navigation directions other than you went the wrong way.

whenever I grew it, I would grow 2 rows in the allotment, then harvest it and it would just about stretch to one meal, and cauliflowers always seemed to produce enough for a single floret.

mine had sat nag- sat in the passenger seat

its like the case of reducing speed limits in towns to 20mph, then complaining when the cars and now running at an innefficient speed causing greater pollution. currently listening to the slow progress of a farmers protest driving through town, been hearing the same musical horns going for the last 30 minutes, and theres only about 1 mile of road that I would be able to hear them on. Dont forget this is going to hit the hire yards much harder than the private boaters, many have already taken payment for the boats to be hired out this year, so unless they add a surcharge on, its the yards that are going to be out of pocket, and this will also go on to the cost of future hires, raising the charges again to a point where hirers will debate hiring at all.

I cant say what I personally think as i would have to moderate myself.
