Wonderwall Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 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 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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!!!!!!!, 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonderwall Posted September 17, 2016 Author Share Posted September 17, 2016 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 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
