  1. I did exactly that, was passing, saw a space and dived in. Upon reflection it was so tight I probably would have given it a miss normally but for my determination to moor there. I’ve been lucky a few more times, but in the winter…
  2. Do let us know if you get lucky…😎
  3. Our electric costs at Herbert Woods are currently a very competitive 18p kWh. Sadly due to increase next month as their contract with their supplier renews…☹️
  4. Certainly is a brilliant app. Goes all the way forward…seven days! Not much help for planning next year I’m afraid…😎
  5. Mmm… just had another look, seems to stop at 2023…🧐
  6. This might help: http://the-norfolk-broads.co.uk/todaytopics.cfm
  7. Could’ve been one of three, until I saw the hammer…🙄⚽️👍
  8. Yes, but I prefer yellow and green…⚽️
  9. I’ve got an Opal fitted out by Fineway in 1995, always been in private ownership. Another example of a lovely craft very suitable for two, or quite often solo.
  10. That’s good, let’s hope it stays that way.
  11. As I use an old Garmin for my speed indicator, I don’t use that function on the Aweigh app. It’s just so annoying to get the tide “wrong” especially when mooring up in a tidal river. As it’s so quiet at the moment I’ve taken to stopping mid stream and checking visually, still got it wrong though…😎
  12. Has anyone else using this app noticed how inaccurate the tide times have been lately? Today, for instance, the app showed low water at Acle Bridge 08.28, I noticed the tide was still falling at about 11.00.
  13. No 😂 If you do it let us know how you get on…😎
  14. Both. When I’ve got shore power that’s my first choice, but it works equally well with an inverter, especially when under way…😎
  15. Just couldn’t resist a few days out as the weather is so good. A hearty beef casserole for the evening meal…😎
  16. I have emailed both my MP and the Secretary of State for the environment. Today I received a reply from my MP, pretty standard response pointing out there nothing as an MP he could do directly, but would, if l liked, forward my email to the BA to ensure they knew my views!
  17. St Catherine’s is the one at Ludham - well worth a visit…😎
  18. Is it this one? https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwjHtaTt5-D8AhXbRUEAHa8KCXsQFnoECBIQAQ&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.edp24.co.uk%2Fnews%2F23271013.norfolk-broads-police-ended-involved-planning-row%2F&usg=AOvVaw2d_N5WDMw2LD30pVB4nxao
  19. Moorings in HW yard clear of ice today (19th) about lunchtime. Temperature on the car showing 3.5C…😎
  20. Second the Bell. Pleased to hear it’s being renovated under new owners…watch this space…😎
  21. I’d love to comment on the ice on the rivers, but…not leaving the basin today…🥶
  22. Bluebell

    Peace

    Saw quite a few boats moored by the Bridge Inn, and just one on the BA side as we drove over on the way home this morning…😎
  23. I remember Tom well from the days when he had the Wimpy Bars in Norwich. Also had the occasional lunchtime drink in the Lodge with Harry Serruys and his mates…😎
