Boaters

Thanks for that Andy

Good stuff Andy,keep it coming.

Good news Barry will be able to see the inside when I catch up with you at the yard .Coming on nicely you must be pleased.

Sorry have not put my pics up but will do so when I get time as we are at a wedding in Wales this week

Great story David ,glad you both had such a good time.At least you did not have to go far ,for home

We caravaned for years rallying in all sorts of weather including snow and below freezing temperatures and always used Propane all year round with no problems .I have a small propane for the boat ,but have not felt the need to use it as we have never been on t he boat when it has been that cold

Same here I was into Cine and gave up when I got the video gear.Only recently I decided that all those old films should go to DVD so advertised and got a full outfit of Sound projector,Cannon cine Camera,screen ,splicer ,reels and even a mint First edition Polaroid camera in its case all for ---------"£25" only thing I would like is one of those boxes that pointed the camera and projector into ,to copy from, any way am looking forward to a busy winter ,and who knows may even have "an old fashioned film show on the screen one night" !!! even got some footage of Noel Edmond's on his first Radio one Road show,now there's one for the Kids as he looks the same today as back in the 70s

Perry ,had an E Mail from Dylan Winter replying to one of mine,indicating that he will be Wintering on the Alde and hopes to film the wildlife ,which is a shame.

They certainly have moved on ,my first video camera was a Ferguson Video Star with a recorder bigger than a biscuit tin that hung in a case on your shoulder and a large camera that fitted on you shoulder, a battery the size of a house brick which lasted about 20 Min's and a full size VHS tape which gave a grainy old picture.We thought it was great,Wish I had kept it ,would have been a nice conversation piece.Like my first mobile which again was the size of a brick,my Granddaughter could not believe we carried it about and had to pull out the aerial to use,also that it had no Text and only made calls nothing else (if no one was on the network at the same time ).She is 13 and has had several phones !!!!! and I have a job to keep up with her on the latest Gizmos

We live in North Norfolk ,about 10 miles from the broads and get all stations on the sets own arial with no problems.

At this rate we could add "North Sea .Net " to our list of forums ? Any one want a cabin boy ?

Well done Mark and the "Nameless one " who said he was having to watch the "fluid intake " prior to the exam ,but I bet you both made up for it afterwards.

Some good pics there Jonny ,looks like you had a good time

Barry, Valen Pegger is a programe that Paul rccomended to reduce the size of pics.Dont need them pils ,not yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great stuff ,like the bits of around the Essex Coast as I used to sail round that area some years ago when the folks lived in Brighlingsea and I kept a boat down there.Keep finding them .make good viewing now the nights are drawing in

See your getting there barry,I use Valun Pegger to reduce the size and save to a stick and then upload from there .Round the houses for some but is the way I have fouund to upload them.

Tina and Perry so glad to hear your good news

We all know who this picture is of ,dont we ? Taken on her commissioning day.

Where else can you get this close to Nature

My favourite spot ,lovely evenings and smashing dawns (when were up in time ,OK this time of year ) Great picture ,on the photo walk walk on Sunday we called into a photo exhibition and yours would have put some of them to shame.When I told Diane you had put a picture up she said it was nice but where were G & T ?

Nice to meet you Pat.Wondered where you got to but we were all over the place ! Look forward to seeing you again

Like Mark ,just back home after a very full day .not only found a pub but got to ride on a train as well,thanks lads for the good company and tips.I think there will be some interesting stuff being posted over the next few days. Connor and Colin,for the ride and banter .Gonna look and see how mine have turned out, who knows may even post some ???

Wow Clive ,when you was telling us all about it on Saturday I imagined a "soft spot " ,that looks like one big job to me ??? Look forward to seeing her finished.

Looking forward to it ,nice part of Norfolk to explore and should be good for some photo opportunities

Point taken Simon we have crossed Breydon many times and know what to expect.I have done some long sea passages in the past ( in a Sail boat ) so did not find the conditions a problem , just felt that not all boats would have expected or beeen prepared for that amount of wind and wild water when leaving the relative calm of the River and coming on to Breydon for the crossing.
