Lovely photos, thank you.
I was drinking there with Tom Farrell and friends from local boatyards, on the night before the Bure Court burnt down.
Yep, I was there, Saturday march 15th 1975.

I'm fairly sure that the fore end wouldn't have looked like that back in 1927.

These are the new trains for the line, being phased in from late next year
They are bi-mode , so can run on either electrified or non electrified routes
I'm sure they can't be introducing these to east Anglia, they aren't 50 years old.

Be interesting to see how the overhead cables would be configured on the swing bridges.

If it really is 80 million, heard all this bull***t eminating from well known boatbuilders at boatshow time, over the years. Virtually none of them are still trading.

If that Trusty is still there. I know I gave up ownership today but I might offer the receiver £30K to take it off his hands
What are you on about? Windboats is solvent and trading, they are nothing, NOTHING to do with Oyster Yachts.

But it is not only Oyster under the Windboats banner is it? Where does this leave Hardy Marine, Gunfleet and Trusty...
Oyster actually did Windboats a favour by taking away the build contract, at least they had a window to seek other work, like purchasing Hardys and taking on the Gunfleet brand, as well as Trustys.

Bridglands staff have all been laid off, I.e. they won't get paid for carrying on moulding, as this is a case of all their eggs in one basket

I see that Oyster Marine have basically gone into liquidation. Feel sorry for the hundred and whatever who work at the Hoveton yard.

Well I guess all the Yorkshiremen on this forum will be celebrating Kyle Edmond getting to the semi-final of the Australian Open, only the sixth British to achieve a semi-final in an open.

So the insurers are taking the view that an adult and a couple of children are a bigger risk that a boat load of stag or hen parties out of their tiny minds on booze or worse!!!!!
