Five of us went for meal just night,at 7.30 in Norfolk it was half empty in the past it would have been packed must be a sign of belt titening its not cheap ,no more.
I remember the old saying ( do you live to work or work to live ) I had a neighbour who got very upset if he could not work on a Sunday in a large factory . Where as here in our town ( in Norfolk ) they still close Wednesday afternoon apart from the big chains and the Town is empty .
Hemingford was our favourite-spot we had a Freeman 24 moored at Crosshall, moved it to Norfolk then a Princess 30 DS and ended up. With a Bounty 28 best boat of the lot all round
