  1. Wow Sam! Sorry to see you're selling. Looks like a great boat, well loved and well looked after. You had mentioned a few times about considering whether you were going to keep boating here in Norfolk. Hope you get what you're looking for without it dragging out too long.

  2. Hope you enjoy your time afloat Kate. There's rarely anyone at the Viaduct moorings at this time of year, just a few "regulars" who tend to stay at the stern on moorings. Not that they're doing anyone any harm with so few boats out and even less getting through the bridge probably.

    The problem of holes along by the mooring posts on that stretch seems to happen every year.

  3. We do like to support local businesses where we can. We shop quite a lot at Roys … both sides of the road 🤭 … and also over at Meale’s farm shop where of course we usually end up in Vera’s coffee shop as well. 

    Friday evening we had an excellent meal at the Granary at Ranworth. They’re serving their Christmas set price menu now on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings as far as I know. It was well worth it. Lovely food and friendly service. 🎄

    Interesting the different perspectives. We like a meal out at lunchtime if we happen to be moored somewhere close by. But otherwise the pubs make no difference to us and are not what we’re looking for.

  5. I will be out and unable to join this week. In fact I'm likely to be missing for a while until January as I have a number of things going on over the rest of the month.

    So if I don't get back into the quiz this side of Christmas I would like to wish all the Friday Friends a lovely festive time.  :default_xmas6:

  6. Great to see you back Mr and Mrs Nog. Beware Wroxham is still a bit flooded in places, including by NBD's yard and car park if you venture in there. But I'm sure that you'll have a great time anyway. :default_xmas4:

  7. Thank you Monica for starting this topic. I do like a little window on the weather in different places. Just frosty this morning for me. Happy to have an indoors kind of day. 🥶😀

  8. Wonderful write up and photos. We often wish we had more than an hourly train into Norwich from Hoveton and Wroxham. I don't know if it was ever more frequent in the days before the pandemic given how services have adjusted since then.

    You certainly made good use of Ranworth. It's so relaxing when it's quiet there.
