More money ! Also a hellova lot more dredging too !!!!

Fiscal responsibilities hmmm...tough one! Depends on whether we are saving money..in which case it would be Broadscot and myself. Can you imagine the savings that a combination of Scots and Jewish/Yorkshireman could make? However there would be pay rises across the board for BA employees, you know the ones that actually do the work.

Then there would be the new tolls policy to implement...river tolls would remain the same with toll payers and locals provided with an exemption card for the carpark meters which would automatically add a £10 toll fee, £50 on nature reserves and £60 per coach entering the Broads area so that everyone funds the Broads.

Griff would have his work cut out spotting ducks that haven't been tolled! 

Planning would be a tricky one. I would of course have planning retained under BA authority...until Maurice Mynah's Northern Broads Potter Heigham Bridge Bypass Canal is built. 

Of course the Spirit of Breydon would have to go and be replaced with a Viking Longship with Grendel stood on the prow with a large axe. You would be amazed where those Vikings could get to!

A new trowel forTimbo  Agreed Tim, we would only visit every second pub to save a sheckel or two.

Navigation.

The Norfolk Wherry Trust!

[Baitrunner]

Marketing and advertising - London Rascal - the job has Robins name all over it

I'd like to volunteer as Grace and Carole's shoe buffer/monitor - that should be a job for life

I'd love to be in-charge of monitoring 24hr moorings for over staying. CCTV on all moorings fed to my home office with a remote control water canon on each mooring. Maybe drones to drop eggs and flour on them.

Was thinking of something for JawsOrca, but then realised Alan just breaks things and Dave fixes them. So, Dave second in command with Eric on Engineering.

Not forgetting Dave (deebee) as official broads photographer
