JennyMorgan Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Not a hint of white in the sky at the moment, summer's here, at last! We took our grandson to Pettits of Reedham yesterday, so very hot, even the meerkats took to sunbathing! By the way, if you have children one to ten years old then I reckon it's a darn good day out, we thoroughly enjoyed it, even the heat! Bang next door to the Humpty Dumpty brewery and shop, hic! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheQ Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I've sailed with a water temperature of around 37C!!! the air temperature was 50C. The rescue boat on the longer races used to carry crates of bottled water to be given out. I couldn't cope with that sort of Heat stress these days.....

Baitrunner Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Bring it on - It took me 30 minutes to dry out after an hour on the underground this morning!! There is only one reason I do that journey - cash. However hot it gets the next 2 days I don't care as we will be on the water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkNog Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Hi Folks Sorry for the delay. The pub is called the Goodmanham Arms. Idyllic village pub situated roughly between York and Hull. Good Beer Guide listed, CAMRA pub of the year with its own brewery and guest beers. Highly recommended if you are ever up in the land of the flat caps and ferrets! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JennyMorgan Posted July 20, 2016 Author Share Posted July 20, 2016 It's hell. what some men have to go through to go sailing when conditions are better than perfect. SWMBO, M-in-laws, sisters, the Queen, the prime minister, all female, all telling us men what to do, Fortunately my SWMBO likes sailing. Time to make a stand, if you dare!

Of course, if you were artful and underhand, then you could re-brand, sorry, rename Poppy as Cromer, it has been known to happen before, go there as much as you like then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyMorgan Posted July 20, 2016 Author Share Posted July 20, 2016 I can see it now, with Cromer emblazoned across her transom, her deeply satisfied owner with a smug look on his face http://www.broads.org.uk/wiki/index.php5?title=Boat_Photograph&photo=z740_14559&BoatId=9077&BoatHistory=14559 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
