Sunday night is local G & T with superb Yarra Valley views

We are now in the Yarra Valley staying in a vineyard for one night. Yesterday it rained for our drive along the coast road!!!

Try again - better wifi

Wifi is seriously poor so selecting multiple images keeps failing!

A few more images from the Yarra

Yarra River boat trip (Melbourne)

Caught the ferry from Kangaroo Island this morning. A tad choppy. Gin far too expensive to buy 95$ a bottle. Now in Melbourne The rocks were the Remarkable Rocks and the Koalas had sore paws from the fire. 50%of the island suffered fire damage and many houses still await being rebuilt

It's called tacking when you drive home after being on boats for a week

I'll do my best!

One for Gracie

We are on Kangaroo Island now having spent yesterday on a wine tour of the Barossa Valley!!! You would have liked it!!! So far 2 nights in Sydney, then 2 in Adelaide.....When we get back to Sydney I think a visit is planned to Bondi

Been away since last Monday but first easy opportunity to post No guessing where I suspect? In Adelaide almost had the equivalent to a party boat on the river. It was dusk so not that clear but electric Liz

Did you hear it go off?

I've seen it commented elsewhere that it might be a welded seam that might have failed or a manufacturing defect maybe possibly caused by sitting in the ice?

I haven't read every thread but is the bridge closed to river traffic as well? I saw a picture in the online EDP that showed a picture saying closed, moor and await instruction. I wasn't sure whether that was because the divers were in the river?

On Sunday my daughter went to Epping Forest to ride her mountain bike. The Forest is overseen by a very wealthy Corporation of London. They now charge you to park in their carparks and have put red lines along all the roads in the forest to stop you parking outside of a carpark! The machine was cash only or pay by phone! She didn't have any cash and there wasn't a phone signal ...... I simply don't visit the Forest now....

I can't think that the businesses at either Ranworth and Reedham will be that impressed - all their footfall will stop or at least reduced considerably. Its the thin end of the wedge

NSBA in this case!

They have the same owner! My white boat is in the shed at Southgates and I speak to Ferry Marine staff when the phone diverts

I don't think the NSBA have a FB presence - I think the document being shared is a press release which is being happily shared between the various boating related FB groups - I've seen it also on River Cruiser FB page - its a shame they haven't added it to the actual NSBA website! Maybe they will............

Not that I've found to the NSBA but it's on the Norfolk Broads News FB group
