Horning Road from Hoveton is closed at times (it was yesterday and this morning) Around Hoveton Church area the works may continue until... 20th DEC!!! The Road is closed around the area of RRH (RAF) Neatishead entrances till 20th Sept..

only 262 days until

You should get a good signal at Horning Staithe, there is a repeater is on the back of the sailing club starters box..

The Coltishall - Hoveton road is closed near the Colishall church. There is a way round but it's devious.. the official route is to go back to the NDR and use Wroxham road..

Ifyou looking at the TV guide for the show... it's not there, They've changed the date .. see below..

The traffic lights on the Hoveton to Stalham road have been removed again... Again with absolutely no sign of having done any work,,,

You will keep chasing butterflies..

That's good news for the next journey to Scotland on the 28th...

There are temporary lights and one way working on the Hoveton to stalham road at the bottom of the hill up to the round towered church. Its the second time they've put them there and again there seems to be no work going on..

And the answer is yes.. However most of the losses were long before The big four railway companies. There was a broad opposite Horning over the south bank of the river, you can still canoe (with permission) through what is a mass of rivulets from decoy broad to halfway along horning lower street. . Lessingham broad is long gone, and I believe wherry sized access up muck fleet to Filby broad was once possible. Many other broads and navigable rivers have been lost..

thats called the Breydon water agreement..

I thought they had dropped the football closed season..

you can keep the dredger it's the little blue box they need...

Oh good.. There will be no increase in me catching anglers..

Perhaps they should park that at Caen Meadow in Wroxham..

A different Kind of Model railway show... The Great Model railway Challenge 2019.. Each week 3 teams build a model railway in competition with each other.. I'm guessing our local team is the one called The Muddle and Go Nowhere... For this years series. 8 shows instead of 6, each 1 hour 15 minutes instead of an hour.. So it must have been successful last year. First show Should be, Friday 30th August 8pm Channel 5.

The NDR, yes this is the right thread, they are closing one lane each way today and tomorrow between the Coltishall and Wroxham road roundabouts. I guessing to repair the broken crash barrier under the Bat bridge.. And the short cut between the Hoveton - Stalham road and the North Walsham road, At Beeston St Lawrence is closed..

People with tinted windows, should remember when the light is switched on they are perfectly visible...

Longest shifts.. At RAF Staxton Wold and at RAF Neatishead, In both cases, worked a normal Day shift , By which time we were snowed in, Spent the Night driving a snow Plough landrover, which at Neatishead Included going down to the mini roundabouts at Hoveton, rather than try to turn there. I went Down to the Station, then to Roys then back. At least I had the snow plough on my military driving licence, the others were out shovelling.. Then did a full Day shift, by which time the main roads were cleared and the night shift came in.. So twice I've worked 36 hours.. Certainly several times I've worked 24 hours for the military.. Most of my working life I've worked 12 hours shifts with up to an hours travelling either end. Now it's a mere 8 hours at work with 3/4 hour travelling either end.

No sign of roadworks yet but there will be, it looks like the demolition team have moved onto the old abatoir site Next Door to Tesco Stalham. So I would expect some traffic disruption when the demolish the tall metal building. This will of course lead onto more disruption later this year. The Site is being developed by Macarthy and Stone, who build retirement homes and "retirement hotels". As someone I know put it, they build on scraps of land where they hope the elderly won't hear the road noise, but describe the sites as near to shops.. and countryside.. eg "Escape to one of England’s most uniquely beautiful landscapes, where the delights of coastal villages and the tranquillity of the Norfolk Broads are both within easy reach." But they don't mention it's trapped between the A149 and Old Market Road. https://www.mccarthyandstone.co.uk/retirement-properties-for-sale/stalham/

So i was told the next day but i forgot to mention that

And the sailing report from yachts and yachting magazine. https://www.yachtsandyachting.com/news/220848/Horning-Sailing-Club-Regatta-Week-2019?source=email

A compilation video of the regatta mostly concentrating on the children's classes..

See my post on road works 2019. About Sutton bridge if you come that way...

OK this one's not on the broads but it's going to affect many on here, including me.. There will be two periods of scheduled works on Sutton bridge - the first for two unspecified days during the week starting Monday, September 2 and the next for four weeks starting during the week commencing Monday, September 23. There will be periods of single line working with traffic lights and periods of total closure with diversions... Wisbech anyone? The road surface is being replaced...
