Sorry, maybe I missed something  here.

Are we now actually promoting the Broads in.... Norfolk? That'll do it!

This isnt meant to be a particular comment in contradiction of the last post, but you would be amazed when we talk to school children, many have never heard of the Broads. Honestly!!

That says a great deal about the education that our local kids receive.

[marshman]

I cannot but agree with you  Peter!  Again!

OK, I'll play - what's pond dipping?

 

[marshman]

And they have the cheek to moan about education in Norfolk - doesn't sound as though its any better in Bristol!!

Well then about this pond dipping - its a bit similar to witch dunking methinks, but then I was educated in Norfolk and know nothing about ponds!!

Maybe its just me but that article seems more about self promotion than promoting the Broads!

Do you mean the very apt cowboy hat? 

Actually he's always very smart when in the office but when outside his dress sense does seem to go a tad chaotic. 

I had to smile at the two ladies holding up the Broads sign! Perhaps that's apt too?

Surely to goodness local geography, heritage and history is of some importance?

Here's one, Fritton Lake! It's at Fritton & flows into the Waveney.
