As a hirer, I always considered myself a holiday maker. Now as a boat owner spending 15-20 weeks afloat each year (not 2020 though!) I can’t bring myself to admit I’m on holiday for that length of time. So I must be a visitor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are also a Broads Visitor. The two are not mutually exclusive. Tell my missus that. She seems to find a hell of a lot of work for me to do 'on holiday'.

Takes a minimum of three generations, better still if you can go back to at least 1066! On my mum's side I can go back to 1460 but before that the records are a bit sparse. Lots of cousins marrying cousins though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upcycler Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Let's face it people, you will come across the SPF (Stupid person factor) whether it be the broads or the roads, these people exist in an abundance and they have their own rules when it comes to respect to other people, wildlife and the country in general. The single finger only exists in their world. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
