  1. Poland has a reported shortage of 100k HGV drivers, France 50k, other eurozone countries also have shortages, we are not the only country with a problem.
  2. MSM interview of a member of the public, " It's the governments fault, they shouldn't say don't panic buy because people will " These people have the vote and walk amongst us, that is more scary than short term panic buying.
  3. Another self fulfilling MSM scare tactic. How to create a crisis out of a molehill. Tesco, 2 out of 500 have run out, BP, 20 out of 2kish. That is probably less than normal, The mass ranks of the foolish public have panicked and will create a short term shortage. If I can't get fuel I will have buy up the bread and toilet rolls.
  4. Lies, damned lies, and statistics ( Mark Twain and others.)
  5. Staithe Works for me. It might be your spillchecker
  6. With Norfolk services I only ever expect a guidline for delivery by the year let alone the month.
  7. O2 is ok on the river front at Brundall but non existent in the marina. EE is rubbish anywhere in Brundall. I am still hoping to find a decent signal from a supplier for the Brundall riverside area.
  8. Can I join the falling down steps on a boat club please. Here is the proof needed for membership. Tomorrow I am off to audition for Star Wars as a Stormtrooper.
  9. Brundall is 12.00, Norwich is 12.30 Thorpe will be around 12.15. I can't find thorpe on Aweigh app.
  10. Two daughter in laws have found a supply from various shops so a crisis has been averted. I ordered costa pods off Amazon, the driver pulled up outside, paused then drove off, they must be scarce if the drivers are nicking them. I did get a refund though.
  11. Matron had a touch of the vapour in Tesco's Emporium the other day, no tonic water. I needed to phone a help line after discovering an absence of Tassimo latte pods.
  12. Try typing decking with predictive text on, particually on Whatsapp.
  13. Thats my new job at BBC Birdwatch out of the window
  14. Could be an Egret, saw a couple this morning, like a heron only smaller and brown.
  15. My new toy It will have a new name, Knight rider, after my grandson Knight, the only grandchild not to have his name on a boat.
  16. I appear to have aquired another boat . A nice Shetland family four with a Big outboard. Had a trial on the Medway today, it certainly has some get up and go, did 25 knots against the tide. That is the last time it will go that fast as we are bringing it up to Norfolk to replace the Broom Scorpio. Having the same problem as Cambridge Cabby, growing grandchildren, it will give us an extra double berth as well as a more usable runabout. Anyone want a nice Broom Scorpio
  17. I have seen Kingfisher on the river, stunning, but then so is BA and Nipper, Nipper and Nipper.
  18. Don't use the blue own brand from the Blowfield camping centre, it is thin and useless. After the last pumpout from Brooms the container of blue seemed smaller. I always add extra blue but the own brand is ineffective. I will be stocking up on a premium brand before I go back up. They may have weakened the formulation in camping shops as they are emptied more often or just started running short of ingredients.
  19. A one star is a very good indication of what is going on in the business. Even if an establishment suddenly gained a four star I would want to be sure that it was being kept up after the inspection. Being graded as one star is an indication that standards had previously slipped.
  20. The fleet looked mighty fine going past just now.
  21. Only when they go too fast, mostly when they pick up or are late back in the morning.
  22. Found a couple of photos of the blue in situ. The binding is well worth having.
  23. I have it in the scorpio, great carpet always cleans up. I also have a plain light blue fitted on Whitey in the rear cabins. Hoovers up nice and any marks wipe off. We had oil marks on it after a service, this came off without a problem. All areas are fixed with press studs in each corner and it stays firm and doesn't distort.
  24. Apparently according to Massi they would have gone through the normal lights procedure then triggered the pit lane light.
