Should be a plate near the wheel It’s 7ft with screen down . Looks like low tide in the morning around 8 to 9 but we also need to think about return as we want to head back to Loddon tomorrow so will only be able to spend an hour or two there .

Ruthie1970 Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 Big change of plan for meal , getting quoted £30 return and no taxi company will to do late evening so just spoke to a lovely lady at the Wine Vaults and we have secured a booking for this evening Cancelled White Lion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNog Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Glad you cancelled White Lion, sadly some less considerate folk don't bother. Taxis in Norfolk and Suffolk not same as in towns - often very small firms and not able to be as flexible Wine Vaults sounds a good plan and ypu should be OK to walk, I'd have thought about 15 mins Please let us know how you get on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruthie1970 Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 Yes would always cancel a booking , not fair on businesses especially in these circumstances. Will definitely let you know how it goes and thank you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
