  1. I have never seen the animation but have listened to "there's only one way to get rid of a mole" many times over the years since Jasper first rendition. Regards Alan
  2. Hi Paul, I think at some time they must have or why the need for the summer/winter rails being left on the bridges, sadly they are not used these days. Of course the need for the summer and winter rails could have just been preventative maintenance, in all wakes of life preventative maintenance now seems to be a thing of the past. Regards Alan

  5. Emergency service called out the Chedgrave on Friday morning after a car was found in the River Chet:- http://www.edp24.co.uk/news/emergency-services-called-out-to-chedgrave-after-car-goes-into-the-river-chet-1-5271859 Regards Alan
  6. Hi Grace, I will see if I can dig out a picture of me on my younger brothers bike back in the day. Regards Alan
  7. My personal take on this is that without the boats on the Broads, be it hire or private, there would be an unrecoverable loss both in jobs and services. No amount of ramblers, bird watches or fishermen could ever fill this void. In the real national parks there is in place structures with regards to farming and tourism to sustain these parks. There have been issues in some of these parks however, take for example the Lake District and the decision to bring in the 10 mph speed limit in 2005. This virtually overnight decimated a number of businesses, with many cutting back their business or even going out of business, petitions were made notices in all the shop windows in Bowness to stop the ban. It was estimated at the time that skiers made up less than 4% of all the lake district tourists but contributed than 20% of all tourist income, effecting shops, hotels, restaurants, pubs and service industries. Regards Alan
  8. Hi Stuart it could get worse! Timbo could take up trying to play the double bass. Regards Alan
  9. Hi Q, It sounds like you are involved in lab work, I have not heard those terms since working sub contract in the steel casting industry. Regards Alan
  10. Snap Grendel I have a set of those and many of the BA, whitworth and BSF etc, it was all we used back in the day. Regards Alan
  11. You can phone the Broads Authority and they will send some by the Post. Alternatively you can purchase at the Broads Authority information in Wroxham (this is just past the Roys car part entrance on the lefthand side) there are various other outlets such as the Tingdene Marina reception and more than likely all of the boat yards. Regards Alan
  12. Hi Charlie, That is correct unless we go over that amount in pre-sales orders/payments, if this is the case the initial order is for 50 and we may order more if required. Regards Alan
  13. Hello Dave, At what point in the paypal purchase do you get the sold out message? I have tried to do a test. I put in login name I put in 3 copies instead of one and pressed the button It takes me to the paypal login Needless to say after purchasing one already I did not want to go further. Let me know and will pass on your comments to technical. Regards Alan
  14. Hello David , Welcome to the moderation team. Regards Alan
  15. Some of the places for example Beccles Yacht station you can moor side on if you pay an higher mooring fee. As for your employment you must be doing something right, the odd collar felt or maybe friends in high places Regards Alan
  16. Hi Peter, The maintenance would seem to have fixed the problem of not removing topics from the unseen contents list once read. Regards Alan
  17. Hi Glenn, All the charging points should be on after the season ends, as already stated Norwich & Yarmouth yacht stations are closed and Beccles & Oulton Broad yacht stations work on reduced hours, their electric supply posts are left on (if the main supply trips out, out of hours however it would not be reinstated until the offices were manned). If you loose power on a post, check the circuit breaker for your connection on the post, every socket has its own breaker. Regards Alan
  18. Hello High6 Some shares sell very quickly, we have sold shares straight after putting them on the market others can take longer and School Shares can take a long time to sell. Many syndicates have waiting lists. I am showing one of the forum members around Ranworth Breeze next Sunday. Regards Alan
  19. We receive Broads Authority notices regularly, please see the following notice from October:- http://forum.norfolkbroadsnetwork.com/topic/13858-mariners-notice-9-10-closure-of-limekiln-dyke-restriction-river-chet/ Regards Alan
  20. I am sorry to hear that Poppy, I share you thoughts on racism 100% but I thought you could have put over your point of view in a better manner. Regards Alan
  21. Here is a link to the current Cadbury Dairy Milk products. I can take or leave chocolate but to me this is the best! Creme Eggs is another story altogether. https://www.cadburygiftsdirect.co.uk/our-product-range/shop-by-brands/dairy-milk.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIyP-m5o-i1wIVCuMbCh3okQ8tEAAYASAAEgKSbvD_BwE Regards Alan
  22. Hi Howard, You also forgot to mention that the Yarmouth & Norwich yacht stations will be closed for the best part of 3 months plus within the next week or so. Regards Alan
  23. Slicing a loaf of bread, far two many blades in the slicers used, I much prefer a doorstep for my toast An uncut loaf from Roy's would last all week if left in our galley, but not much chance of that however. Regards Alan
  24. So much hot air about what is basically just a game, I can't see the interest to be honest. Regards Alan
  25. The beauty of all boating holidays including the Broads is to get away from the hustle & bustle of everyday life. Being able to travel at 4 to 6 mph taking in the surroundings, the last thing you need is loads of modern day technology rearing its ugly head. Regards Alan
