    Church Services On The Broads In May

    in Broads Chat

    Posted



    Now that our May holiday is about to start can I  ask for a bit of advice. My cousin is coming with us on this trip, can some one tell me where and when there are Catholic Church Services on the Broads during this month, and will they be within easy walking distance of the moorings?
    Once again we are looking forward to a great holiday on the Broads this time on Serenade. Hope to say a hello to many of you. Cheers all??

    So I'm always looking for any good webcams that people have found and have bookmarked this one. Thanks for sharing it. :)

    Hi SwanR,

    Thought you might like to look at the Linlithgow Union  Canal Society web site Lucs.org especially at weekends it can be quite interesting

    WOWWWWWW WHAT A GREAT FORUM as newbie  I love it.

    As has been said many times already thank you Robin for the rollercoaster  journey and to Griff and the Indy TEAM you deserve all the plaudits your getting.  To all those friends of Robin and the members who rushed to his assistance well  done,  you are a true example of how clubs and societies should behave.  Yes there are the few that like to pontificate but hay ho we can't all be like Robin. It's  taken me a week to read through these 96 pages and catch up on this story. 
    Please Robin carry on as you are, don't change live your dream, you have a lot of caring people around you.
    I look forward to maybe meeting you in May and catching a glimpse of "Independence".
    I'm  sure to "Serenade" you as we pass. 

    Cheers

    Hi All,

    As a new member I thought I'd  give you a little bit of my back ground in boating.

    First got involved in the early 80's in assisting a work coĺleague in restoring his Dutch built yacht and then bought my own 19foot Seamaster. Unfortunately after it suffered serious damage in a storm in Granton harbour and having a new outboard pinched I decided to give it up as a expensive hobby. A short time later another friend introduced me to Linlithgow Canal Society which I've now been a member for over 20 years.

    Over those past years we have hired and cruised many canals including the River Wey, the Thames,the Fens and of course the Broads. Our first visit to the Broads was in the early 90's when we hired one of Fineway's cruisers, since then we have hired from HW, FCL, and one or two others, the last being one of Royals 2yrs  ago. I must admit nearly all our hires have been of good quality and our favourite boat being HW's "Shimmering Light" which we have hired 3 times.

    We are now looking forward to cruising on BB's "Serenade " after watching the London Rascals review of her she certainly looks very classy.  Anyway may see some of you at the May Gathering.

    Cheers all

    Hi All,?‍♂️⛴

    Just like to introduce  myself, I'm a jock fi oer  the high wall  up north. Found your forum through viewing BB's Serenade and watching the London Rascals "Captain's Blog". Was very impressed by his review and blog, so much so decided to hire Serenade in May. Although I  don't want to commit at this stage to joining up for the gtg, thought I might if allowed drop by at some point. It all sounds like one big party and I'm sure it will all be one great jamboree.
    Enjoying reading many of the members posts and comments. Looking forward to seeing the Broads again?‍♂️and maybe seeing some of you in May,

    Cheers Jamboboatman
