  1. If you killed it would you have to prove it was worrying your sheep? Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  2. That's kind of you, thanks, and something of a relief as our new boat is marked up as being 8'11". Will doubtless let you know before too long. Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  3. Try Google street view in satellite mode, positioned on the right end of the bridge. It's surprising how far away the boats actually are. Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  4. Speaking of Ludham Bridge, I have seen tidal ranges of between 3" and 6" mentioned on different websites, but https://tides.willyweather.co.uk/ee/norfolk/river-ant----ludham-bridge.html suggests it could be as much as 18 inches. Can anyone give a more definitive answer, please?
  5. We've been puzzling over that. In fact it's an optical illusion - the boats are moored stern on a hundred yards or more further upstream opposite the grey building with white window cill you can see behind the red car.
  6. Yup, hardly seemed fair when I live almost next door

    How is this not personally insulting - it was always going to start a row and was clearly the intention. There is only one place for deliberate trolling, and it's not here. This thread should be stopped now as contrary to TOS before it gets worse. Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  8. About 30 minutes from home and more sensibly priced than some. The only drawback is that after all that traveling we are inevitably forced to go next door for some sustenance. ? Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  9. Best place for 'em - ballast! Very ambitious for the day, but over-engineered, unreliable and very quickly superseded.
  10. Wow, some blast from the past - the Burroughs Nixie tube. Used in their desktop calculators in the late 1960s, I installed the first two UK models in BICC. Some old stocks of tubes are still around, and I believe someone's trying to make new ones. Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk

  13. One might also imagine that a substantial number of day boats might be hired by "support" personnel carrying water etc to their individual friends/family for the 5 hour duration along the length of the course. I put this whole event in the same class as spending tens of thousands of pounds building a motorway bridge for bats ( I speak as a bat enthusiast) - stark raving bonkers. Perhaps a few of these hardy enthusiasts would care to swim around in front of Wroxham bridge for a couple of hours and tell us how it is.
  14. The (really) old ones are the best[emoji6] Possibly 1970. One of my favourites, but it always seems to fall flat in company. Maybe only Doddy could get a laugh from it, which makes me think I'm totally bonkers. Glad to find another superior s.o.h. Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  15. One of its legs is both the same. [emoji6] Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  16. Broadsedge can accommodate all sizes of motor cruisers & sailing boats most with electricity Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk "Broadsedge can accommodate all sizes of motor cruisers & sailing boats most with electricity"
  17. It would have to be Tesco's reusable plastic ice cubes so as not to dilute the Scotch. Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  18. Or use it neat if you want whiskey and dry. [emoji6] Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  19. Thank you for womansplaining. Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  20. Doesn't seem likely. Maybe 46%........... And rising! Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  21. Seen one, seen 'em all (all five-hundred and seventy-eight thousand-million less the one Arthur absconded with).
  22. MM: Not worried, was never keen on NowWhattian BogHogs anyhow.
  23. "Oh freddled gruntbuggly, Thy micturations are to me As plurdled gabbleblotchits On a lurgid bee." Sure? Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
  24. All they'll get from me are a bound set of Vogon poetry and a small towel. Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
