    How long are you here for this time Howard?         At least the weather is a tad milder now.

    We take the boat back on Monday M :default_crying1animated:

    Compared with last December it is much milder but wetter! In some ways I prefer it frosty but dry. 

    Fur and Feather today hopefully for a drop of Norfolk Nog :default_beerchug:

    Nothing to stop you passing a ranger on breydon as long as you do it with consideration and don't bounce them all over the place, speed is irrelevant.

     

    Indeed, no speed limit on Breydon. Just think in winter they don't have much to do so might want to check what we're up to :default_norty:

    Been taking it very steady all week though, it's amazing how much fuel you save :default_stinky:

  3. Hi M Breydon was quite calm really, southerly wind possibly. No issues, all went very smoothly. Didn't stop for water at Stracey as fairly full but worth noting. 

    Now dropped anchor :default_biggrin: :default_beerchug:

  4. Safely through Great Yarmouth :default_biggrin:

    Passed a Ranger on Breydon but he didn't bother us. 

    Sharp eyed Mrs Nog spotted a water point at the Stracey Arms Mill, pay at shop. Wondered if it's new or just never seen it before.

    Geoff Pleasants, who was landlord for many years

    Looks like he was there from mid 50's right up to early 70's. Steward and Patteson pub but would have been taken over by the nasty Watneys.

    it is a very sad day indeed for the north rivers.

    Couldn't agree more. I think (could be wrong) that it's a Punch pub. I guess the rent will be eye watering. Not so bad in summer but must be a real struggle in winter.

    Looking at those prices , I hope you have brought along your flexible friend!!

    Ha ha! Don't like to waste valuable drinking time eating so not this time but maybe for Mrs Nog's birthday. 

    Also top marks to the Ship for not booting us out early. Most enjoyable evening with Little Sharpie and Mrs Nog worked the gin shelf. Excellent pub :1311_thumbsup_tone2:

    Where’s The Shoulder of Mutton? I guess I should know as we were based at Brundall for so many years. 

    Hi Helen it's at Strumpshaw just east of Brundall. Good pub with excellent beer. I'm told the food is very high quality but not cheap. Well worth a visit.
