  1. The Wind! We were gently floating our flappy thing down the Bure with the tide and no wind in sight. Approaching the waterworks a very strong gust of wind came from nowhere and knocked our Thurne class flat on it's side with the main sail almost touching the water. The first thing I knew was whilst still sitting on the bench I was looking down at my partner who was up to his armpits in water. The yacht righted itself and we bailed like fury. A motor cruiser who witnessed it came to our aid and told us he had seen a mini tornado type event come almost straight down on us from above. It certainly did not come from over my shoulder as my hat was loosely plonked on my head and there it remained. Since then I have lost my confidence in sailing and only go out on calm days.
  2. When I last ate their some two years ago (same owners I believe), I was offered both choices, a vegetarian main to accompany a vast range of veg for the same price as the meat carvery or "just" a very large plate of veg for a reduced price. I think it was something like £3 cheaper. The range of veg was extensive an easily made a good meal on its own.
  3. Just read this blog, truly magical https://frameworktravel.home.blog/2022/06/12/sit-a-while-with-me/?fbclid=IwAR1lHbspny1baZvTCscb-YLPideTFR-KYOBSrJBB0J8-ftQI2h-ecyObWz

  11. As per their job advert on Indeed "Welcome to the Stonegate Group! We are the largest pub company in the UK and employ thousands of staff across our pubs, bars, clubs, and pub support center. Life at Stonegate is exciting, fast-paced, and always fun.

  12. In these Covid times the number of people due to hire the boat can change at the last minute as people drop out and others are added, original requests for double duvets become two singles etc. This information may not reach the cleaning crew who tend to work from a schedule printed off the day before.
