Bonus Week

[Wonderwall]

It's 25 years since the gaffer struck it lucky and met me , so what better way to celebrate than have our first week away on our own for 17+ years than a week on Pacific Grayling , starting 30/9/16.

The first holiday we had together was on an Aston boat about 23 years ago. How time flies!!

Staying South and hitting the delights of oulton, beccles and Norwich , so if anybody happens upon us make yourself known . I might even let you buy me an ale . Just going to absoloute chill for the week, can't wait.

Anybody else about?

Happy days 

[addicted]

Hope you have the holiday of a lifetime and the current Indian summer holds on for you enjoy! 

Regards 

Carole

17 years! What have you been doing? I've been away from the Broads for a year now (but back in October) and that's a year too long for me. Have a great time.

Its Neil's accent aka Wonderwall, he was down early July, the fish have had a chance to find new safe areas till he returns at the end of the month !   

He has one failing, he supports Hibs ! ........          Mon the Honest Men on seturday !

17 years not just the 2 of us. These pesky kids have got in the way.

ive been on the broads once or twice , let's say during that time

i am 48 year young.  I have been on the broads , at a quick guess ,  20 times, for a 900 mile round trip , I think that's not too bad, or sad however you perceive it!!!!!!!,

[Gracie]

Oan second thochts, this wee sassenach would eat a wee haggis (yuk), even a deep fried mars bar if I could wash it down with a bottle of wine

I would consider it a guid honour to be an offeeeshall Scot........dae tha sell kilts in Next?  

Grace

[Wonderwall]

In my east coast terms , which of course are correct, a radge , is a slightly mad person ( apparently it really means a pregnant fish )

 a gadgie , is person, most normally a man , who is of dubious character.

it is strangely,a term of endearment, in a radge kinda way 

[BroadScot]

Grace, sorry hen, but yell hay tae stoap swallyin wine and get oan tae the cratur, much better fur ye ye ken. Uz westies tak a phrasebook wi us when enterin such places as Dundee n Dunfermline, they hey a language awe tae themsels.

Haw Neil, dinny stert aboot sayin yer richt ower oan the cauld side, ye ken fine us westies have the far superior edjacatin in awe things linguistical so there! 

Thankfully Robert Burns spoke guid old scots !!!
