You carry on doing daft things like that and you will soon be wearing a white dinner jacket with your hands fastened behind your back you daft sod!

An old timer tells me that an application by Swancraft for three lodges to be built on stilts partly within trees was rejected outright some years ago.

I'm interested to see that it looks as if Broadgate Bakery might be putting in a retail area.
Where did you see that about a bakery.

I've tried following this link, but all I get is a menu for the application and anything I press on leads nowhere. How do I get to see any useful info?
pdf, far right of page.

Each to their own as the saying goes. Some might head out to get away from it or be thankful for having the choice of having many other TV channels to tune to.

It’s called ‘Build Up’ and drawing the opposition away from their own half to enable our midfield to go through and break to the forwards to do their thing
Griff
Something we are not very good at doing imho. Expect Italy to play their normal five man defence game plan and attack on the break much like they played against Spain.

I was mud weighted on Bargate during the match against Ukraine and could hear the cheers quite clearly, I presume from the Yare pub. Got home yesterday and don't recall hearing any cheers, nearest pub is about the same distance but more built up.
The last time I was in The Yare they didnt have Sky sport or BT sport on the TV`s, could the noise have been from elsewhere?

One of the rare times that I sat and watched the match on television and the whole experience left me feeling...bewildered. For some reason, I don't think the commentators were watching the same match that I was!
While studio staff waxed lyrical about England's prowess, I was sat thinking our right side was weak from the midfield up. Saka was out of his depth, Mount was effectively missing in action, our team (that scores most goals from the head) was being out-jumped by the Danes and if not for Walker and Stones we would have been hammered into oblivion. Grealish arrived and departed with little impact. English tactics seemed to consist of a lot of falling over and with the forwards on the floor there was no one to pick up the loose ball at the edge of the area. This morning I've read and heard reports on the quality of 'record breaking' Pickford in goal, where as I thought he was nervous, verging on shambolic.
'Who's our goalie?' Ellie asked as both Matty and I groaned every time he got near the ball.
'Stan Laurel!' the reply.
Meanwhile, Ellie was convinced England would win. I have to admit I had predicted an Italy/England final after the first games of the tournament. But extra time saw Ellie join me loitering outside while I had a smoke, the tension was too much. Outside we could hear the roars from the crowd at Gainsborough Trinity in the valley below us as they watched the match on a big screen. An 'ooh' followed by cries of 'shame' had me scuttling inside to watch a replay on TV of the infringement that saw England awarded a penalty. The Trinity crowd was right, the 'shame' of such a soft penalty.
'Can he kick it twice on a penalty? But we won!' said Ellie, the Chelsea supporter...sorry Ian but she is, as the final whistle blew.
Matty looked at me. We were both pleased to see England in a final but we both knew that as 'wins' go, that one was inglorious. Best to keep quiet and move right along, nothing to see here!
As for the final...I'm torn. Yes, I would like England to win but Italy have played some beautiful football!Football clearly isnt your game.

Feel your pain having once got rammed in the side by a lady who claimed she was distracted by her baby in the back seat and therefore didnt see me.
Car was worth £15k and insurance company offered £8k, when questioned they sent me a link to the nearest matching car found on autotrader, that car was three years older with almost twice the mileage!
Legalised robbery.

Whilst I agree with what you say it is a very short track therefore lap times will be closer.

Saturday 03rd July
1000 - An old lady friend of ‘B.A’s came calling - Malanka, and was she coming out? Yes she most definitely was!
We sailed in company to the free moorings at Wroxham through the bridge at about 6ft7”
We then had a DTS in kings head garden with Purdey making new friends all round
later that afternoon on to Coltishall Common and booked a table in Kings Head Hotel for dinner and with a view of the TV - Bonus Top notch evening with staff rearranging tables so we could see the game better, I gave them a sizeable tip. The girlies were smitten with Purdey which seems to be the norm
We retired onboard for a nightcap and lights out.
My thigh is being bothersome
Griff
Purdey is quite the Babe magnet isnt she.

And soon recover if one of their team mates scores!! Shameful behaviour demonstrated by on of their players in the Belgium game. Could a yellow card not be awarded for simulation?
Straight red card for me for simulation in the penalty box. Mr Kane another who goes down far too easily for me I`m afarid.

I fear Italy, one puff of wind and they fall over in pain which is a shame as they are a talented team.

Thank you OBB but 10k really is all we have to spend 😫
Buying a boat is the same as buying a vehicle, you rarely pay the full asking price. With a boat you ideally want a current BBS, a recent survey or pay to have one carried out and having the river toll in place for a year is a bonus.
