webntweb Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Hi all, We've been lucky enough to get two weeks together on Lightning starting next Saturday. We are hoping to be in Hoveton for the weekend of the 13th - 15th when one of our friends will be joining us for our second week. Can anybody recommend a taxi firm from our home base in Brundall to Hoveton. thanks Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rightsaidfred Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I thought I read somewhere Lightning is now based in Horning. Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNog Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 When we hired from Swancraft we used a firm from Blofield - I think it's called Blofield cars or similar. Sorry it's been a while and I can't find their card. They were good and reasonable. Google may find them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WherryNice Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 It's Thunder that is now based in Horning, same sort of boat. I have no connection, just been looking into the various syndicates recently... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrundallNavy Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 You can always hop on the train to Norwich then change for Brundall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was myself I would do just that, especially as I have a Railcard. But its my friend who will be joining us and he gets too excited at being on Lightning to spend best part of an hour on two trains, as he will have already been travelling for five and a half hours when he gets to Brundall.

StillCruising Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 We used Horning Taxis 01692 630856 on Saturday and found them very helpful. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been using them for quite a while now. Wendy and Carl are brilliant. Nothing too much trouble and very reliable Just might be a bit of a trek for them to Brundall, but well worth giving them a bell. Highly recommended. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cockatoo Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 We did it slightly differently when Les joined us for the second week. We met him at Ranworth and left his car there. When we got back to Brundall we just picked his car up using ours. It was also handy having his car oop north for a trip to Tesco :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
