Something in the way of being Goosed!!! Now if that is rude these days (as most things are off limits now) forgive me. Hardly Geese Gracie but that is all that I could find.

I didnt take note of that and thoroughly agree, yes have Sky Sports but do it in another part of the building away from those who dont want to watch it.

So true. Well said.

I dont know about Bats but more likely the word Batty comes to mind. Any excuse. One day these people will wake up and realise people matter more. Wild animals adapt, just look at Urban Foxes. Years ago you only saw them in the wild in the countryside, now they are in towns.

That is lovely Jean.

Social Media I agree it is like a cesspit at times. We were all pretty good along in our area , as most of us oldies were scared to death to go out of the door in fear it would be our last. I am pleased to say that thanks to our Government we were able to have our first Covid jabs in the January. Had to travel a long way for it but it was all worth it. The volunteers at Southwold were amazing standing out in freezing weather directing all of us old fogies to where we should be or not be. I am just about to have my 8th jab. This time at the local pharmacy. We had one family up the road from us that ignored all the rules, had people round all of the time and even carried on a business at the property with people calling with their cars to be repaired. Even repaired vehicles in the road quite blatantly. No social distancing there. Thank heavens for all of the delivery drivers that were absolutely wonderful. At the door I met some very interesting people who had very different careers normally but were doing the delivering to 'get out of the house'.

Looking forward and planning your holiday is half the fun of going on holiday. Have a fantastic time and catch plenty of fish.

Remove the Egyptian Goose or send them all on an Anger Management Course. They are such bad tempered birds.

The word 'crabs' has other connotations.

Unfortunately, if you do decide to fish from a 24hr mooring and you ground bait etc , it is a tad disappointing if , especially out of season boats decide that is their venue for the night. It is a chance you take. Most fishermen are flexible and mine would just up sticks and move on , the thinking being, you never know further along or another place may be even better. I think to be a fisherman you have to have the attitude of glass half full because there is always a chance that in the next hour , the tide will change and the fish will come back etc. At least it is not as bad as when my two sons were small they used to fish from the beach in Dorset and 9 times out of 10 there would be a 'birds nest' and tears and I would spend ages trying to undo this mass of line all tangled up. I dont think Broads fishermen have this problem.

How true. Thank you for letting me know.

Just a thought, how wide is Neatishead, was wondering what is the longest boat you could turn up there please? I agree turning on the ropes when it is safe to do so is a win win situation.

And , isnt it good that our forum is moderated. The numpties can perform elsewhere and leave us lot in peace.

It is good to know that this is now in the hands of those who will be dealing with the matter. I must say it is good to know that both sides it is ok to moor for 24hrs as previously thought, https://www.northnorfolknews.co.uk/news/24166531.norfolk-broads-row-breaks-fishermen-boater/?ref=eb&nid=2399&u=c160d74be8c30ff96c1e228a4a7f5f71&date=070324

Surprisingly - No. There seems to be an agenda here and I am not happy with it. The OP showed behaviour by thank goodness a very few fisherman. I am married to a fisherman and there is no way he would behave like that. Most fishermen (and I mean all genders) are decent people, salt of the earth, go to ends to help people , they do not behave like this lot. I think a cage would be the best place for them. Thank goodness the fishing season is about to end.

Definitely a call to the river police. Who the hell do they think they are? It is not a fishing club mooring , it is a 24hr mooring, so they can ........ off may be they would understand that.

oh dear bit off if you cannot have your holding tank emptied for over 3 months. Also they do refuse collections.

Not certain if this has been raised here before but it did strike me that 'Louise' the facilities boat must have an awful job getting under the bridge. It must be a worry for properties without main drainage. http://www.broads.org.uk/wiki2018/index.php?title=Boat_Details&BoatId=1079&BoatHistory=1110

Lovely to see the river levels going down.

Crumbs I thought I was the only one up at this ungodly hour.

Snap - I too on returning from a boating holiday always for about 2 weeks woke up and wondered where I was, and sitting at my desk I used feel movement of the boat, very strange (dont answer that one). As for bridges once we have gone through I am permanently dreading not being able to get back.

I have only just joined your post and crumbs you do like to do things the hard way. I hold my hat up to you for travelling all that way. Well done. The ship looks amazing and so does the weather. Thank you for posting. You are not missing much here in the UK as , still cold and miserable most of the time. Enjoy every moment.

Look at 3:13. Will this help with the flooding? https://youtu.be/rbTygZ7cOQM
