  1. We find a pair of Jack Russels works well. They are getting used to the 'only chase them if they are bigger than you' rule. It stops them chasing ducks :)
  2. Last night my wellies had about 1.5 inches freeboard when I went to work so for tonight I've put spare clothes in my workbag.
  3. Don't forget PETA People Eating Tasty Animals
  4. It's my neighbours little mancave, he deals in collectibles. There is loads of good stuff in there :)
  5. Blofield Garden Center (Norwich camping and leisure) are paying £10 for any unwanted Calor bottles.
  6. To Londoners Thrupenny bit has a whole different meaning ;)
  7. Another thing to remember about Yarmouth is that it is a long walk/bus ride to the town center and seafront.
  8. That's true John, and one where they actually understand the regulations.
  9. I should've said that you can also see how much is left in the cylinder.
  10. Not as far as I can see @grendel. For me, Morrisons or BP (24hr) in Norwich is good enough. Another plus point is that the cylinder doesn't have to be empty but can be topped up at anytime. I go into Norwich 2 or 3 times a week, at least once by car.
  11. That would only give you a 7.5 year payback time lol
  12. After having to go to Attleborough to get a replacement cylinder at the weekend I have been looking at alternatives and have come across refillable cylinders made by Safefill. My thinking is that the 5kg cylinder, holding 8.5 litres of LPG (about £5.95 per fill at todays prices) should last about the same time as a 4.5kg Calor @ £18.95, saving £13 a fill. At an initial cost of about £200 (including the filling adapter and regulator) should have a payback time of around 15 months as I fit a new Calor cylinder about every 6 weeks on average. Thoughts anyone?
  13. Do these people never think of helping rather than filming? It really boils my water er, I mean grinds my gears when I see things like this.
  14. Have you tried Horning Pleasurecraft MM (the old Richardsons, Horning)
  15. If you mean the badge you print off on a piece of paper then sure, put it in the window. Mooring: Get the guy that does your trial run to show you how to tie the boat (that's partly what he's there for) after that it's just practice. If you are staying north the tides aren't really a problem as the difference in water heights between high and low tide are fairly small. The nearer you get to Yarmouth the greater they are. As someone has said, download the 'Aweigh' app, that will tell you which way the tides is going wherever you are. And enjoy :)
  16. This appears to be broken. Keeps appearing although there are no new replies on the thread.
  17. I think I've just caught my vegan Aunty eating a bacon sandwich :(
  18. Isn't the way it is being dealt with (or not dealt with) the main problem though?
  19. It was only last week millions were encouraged to "eat out to help out" Now we can only go to the pub in groups of less than 6, where we will meet scores of other groups of less than 6 And there can be more than 6 at work or in school. You really couldn't make it up.
  20. Ubuntu for the win (and I don't have a beard) :)
  21. Do it by ear, when the engines are out of sync you will hear a drumming noise. Some times you only need a gentle nudge on the throttles to get rid of it.
  22. Top Tip Make sure you take a landing net
