Marina myself and sweet king fisher will be on our hols next Saturday.Yes we are lucky getting up to the broads all year round,but its still great to be on the water.We are very much looking forward to our two weeks.So if you see us along the way,give us a wave.Next saturday we will make for Reedham,then if enough light going over Breydon.Sunday we are mooring at herbie woods,day boat to Hickling.Its been many years since we went under the bridge.very much looking forward to that.When Marina and I first hired on our own .I almost took me head off at potter new bridge,forgetting to duck.

We're on Shadow at the mooring at the moment.

 Just had a meal at the Yare and got back for the last half hour of Strictly.

  Staying here tomorrow to do some odd jobs, then up North.   Booked in at Woods End on 14th,  our 35th anniversary, so will have to be back down by then.

We are at Stokesby.  Staithe full as are the farm Moorings the other side of the pub.  Some people even double moored.  Haven't seen it this busy for a long time!  Such a difference to last night in near solitary splendour at Berney.

One of Richardson's older boats has been running it's engine on and off all afternoon, directly behind us.  Lovely headache now.  The private boat in front has just started as well.

Off to Potter tomorrow.

Saw sweet kingfisher coming off the Brooms quay Saturday. Don't think you recognised me!!!

more engine running woes it seems. Down at surlingham lots of boats had engines going. No problems at all and all being friendly and no co detectors going off. It really does depend on the boat if you get stunk out. 

Our neighbours had Genny going on and off so we asked if ok to put ours for an hour. If too smelly shout and will turn it off. No problems. 

Its all about give and take and asking or talking in a civilised manner. :kiss I am back on the love!!!!

I have just got home to a lovely home made banner 'Welcome home mummy' and a beautiful bouquet of flowers, Like Mark, I am also back on the love :kiss I'm not going to harp on about how wonderful the world is and all that but the sun is shining and I am mighty glad to be home, although I think Mark has lost the plot :naughty: bring on the love, I say

Sorry for going off topic Ian, loving the photos, hope you and Marina are having a smashing time :wave
