Ok guys! We have a small but beautiful group attending at Salhouse Broad on the Bank Holiday Weekend, and it will be fun. But! 'What about the rest of us?' I hear you cry...well I don't but ....:default_blink:

Therefore I thought we might transfer the Gracie's Shoes competition to the Forum rather than Salhouse. Here is my plan.... Members decorate and submit photographic evidence of a shoe, or shoes that should be A) highly original B) Gracie/Louboutin appetising.  C) NBN/Broads/Boating  relevant maybe with practical second applications? :default_biggrin:  Forum guidelines apply so  play nice! 

Please submit pics on this thread. Closing date Sept 1st judges' decision final.

There could be a prize........

NBN Birthday Weekend Plan Part 1

We can start with a Cruise in Company so flags as much as the boat will take is the order of the day. :default_beerchug:

. Mudweight towards lunchtime at Malthouse Broad and be prepared to set off at 1.30 led by Whelptons hire yacht Bootlegger. I hope we will be able to raise the NBN flag to the masthead as the signal to start. Please then fall in in single file behind Bootlegger as flagship.

The river will be busy being Bank Holiday, so care is needed and all normal give way stuff applies, we will keep to the speed limits of course and please do not travel two abreast. 

On arrival at Salhouse (est. 2. 45 or thereabouts) please stand off to allow the boat in front of you in the C in C to moor then come in yourself. We have reserved moorings.

NBN Birthday Weekend Plan Part 2

We will get the tent and gazebo set up while members get settled and socialise.

Once set up we can make contributions to a shared bar in the tent which will run as long as supplies do! 

We will also mark out a shared BBQ area so that we can all bring our BBQs together and cook our own food evening meals more sociably than spread out along the mooring.

Evening plan,  BBQs of course, then Mike will run a campfire for us and quiz.
