  1. "I always use wine when I'm cooking, sometimes I may even add it to the food " My thoughts exactly haha! I hope they are great cooks if they are bashing your cooking! Although burning a salad seems like an unfortunate but amusing experience!
  2. I struggle pouring the white wine into the pan. Usually because I'm pouring it into my wine glass instead!
  3. Hi everyone, Just thought I'd share my favourite dish we made last time we went to the Norfolk Broads. We decided that one of the nights we would make chicken in white wine sauce as our kitchen on the boat was small and this was a one pan dish! Firstly, brown off the chicken pieces in olive oil. Then add the shallots, chopped garlic, mushrooms, and butter and saute everything for around 5 minutes. White wine goes in the pot (my favourite step!). Boil for a few minutes. Then add the cream, bring to the boil again then simmer for around 15 minutes. You can add any herbs or spices of your preference. We like to add paprika to the sauce but parsley goes lovely with this dish! Lastly, pour the delicious chicken and sauce over your bowl of spaghetti (also works lovely with mash) and add cheese on top. I hope this gives someone an idea for what they can make whilst cruising the Broads! Enjoy!
  4. I will most definitely be reading your previous blogs and I'll look out for your blog after your 2 week holiday. Very exciting! Thank you.
  5. The holiday starts on 20th April until 27th April 2018
  6. Thank you so much for that. We will definitely try and do that! I've heard great things about Ludham village
  7. No we went to the Broads two years ago, October 2016. I did love the Northern broads but I'm hoping we can do that again but with a little bit of the South too!
  8. Hahaha ey I'm a Northern girl myself so be careful what you say Would you not recommend going as far as Great Yarmouth then?
  9. Thank you so much for the advice! I'm very much looking forward to it!
  10. Thank you so much for that. It was really helpful information! I just want to be there now. 36 days and counting
  11. Brilliant! I'll see if it'll still be aviailable in April! Thank you :)
  12. I'm only half way through reading your blog but I had to quote the Dog Inn and say it was our first pub we went to the first time we went to the Broads and we loved it!!
  13. We are going 20th April for 7 days. I shall definitely read your blog!
  14. Its the Moon Voyager (see picture). The air draft is 6ft 9. It definitely will not go under Potter Heigham bridge but unsure about the others.
  15. Good morning! I need someone's opinion on which is the best route for our holiday. We are going for 7 days (Friday to Friday) and starting from Richardson's Marina in Stalham. We are a group of family and friends and want to know which would be the best suited for us. The mother of the group has asked if we could have a scenic route as she loves looking at the natural beauty surrounding the broads (and also likes having a nosey at the amazing houses). Most of us don't mind which route we take but would like it if there were some pubs along the way. Any recommended routes would be grateful as we've never been for 7 nights before!

  17. We went early October last time which was mostly overcast but we still made the most of it. I'm looking forward to going in April this time!
  18. Thank you so much! I shall post some pictures when I'm back

  20. How did you find the Moon Voyager? Was it everything you were expecting?
