Chelsea14Ian Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I enjoy it.I used to help collecting for the RNLI.When we lived in Kent.I spoke with them here twice, and so far they've not asked me to help.I Now know most of the crew and volunteers at Hemsby.They are a good bunch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YnysMon Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I think I'm living in an alternative Universe. Younger son's friend just picked him up (unplanned... I'd just served up our dinner). Why have they left this lot on front of our garage door? 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I am meeting friends who are staying in a hotel in Yarmouth this evening for a night out and so I am at the yacht station which is fairly busy. Wish me luck with the locals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is ‘head in a bed’ an update on ‘elf on a shelf’? Not sure it’ll catch on, though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

floydraser Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Yesterday, took one of my grandsons (12 yo) for his first fishing session. Daughter in law thanked me for taking him. You must be joking, there are some things money just can't buy! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 70 next year and I still fondly remember sitting on a bank with my grandad teaching me how to tie a blood knot! With the tip of his tongue sticking out, of course.

SwanR Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 I freely admit to not knowing so doing a little search out of interest. And I do believe you might have been in Gorleston? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea14Ian Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Correct. We often go through the Town but don't stop.Today we did,Gorleston. Must say interesting, very pleasant. There's a Mediterranean Restaurant, which think we will visit. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 We visited a couple of times. Didn’t really like the strange main street shopping area. But we had a nice drink out down by the beach where some of Yesterday was filmed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have a peep inside the theatre. An experience. Good shows. Strange though. Table and chairs. You wave a flag, during the performance to order your drinks. Afterwards I stay at the Pier Hotel, or The Cliff. In order to conform to standing orders, don't you know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addicted Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 We often visit Gorleston. It always looks to me as if it's in a time warp 1940s/1950s. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
