Up To The Boat Tomorrow

Chelsea14Ian · October 5, 2020

We are back up to the boat tomorrow,until Friday or Saturday .Hopefully no mishaps this time.Hope to get to Oulton and Beccles ,perhaps Loddon and The Ferry house. I've got a PET scan next monday.This will probably be our last trip this year sadly.Had hoped to have another trip but I may need further treatment and Marina may have a op on her wrist.

Will be good to have a few hopefully stress free days.I will post some picks.

Enjoy Ian,

The southern dragons are not as bad as the northen bridges.

Please give our regards to all at Cove.

Tell Marina not grasp your wallet so hard it may ease her wrist!

My head is the least of my problems .My main concern is my lungs.I just want to get whatever treatment required.

Hello Ian & Marina when ever you manage to get up to the boat just relax into the slower pace of life aboard. Sadly I have to wait until almost the end of November for my next visit.

Regards

Fingers crossed then and the glass half full rather than half empty attitued helps Ian. Yep weather is almost 4 seasons in one day at the moment.

Now OBB you do realise that whether the glass is half empty or half full there's room for more wine either way :default_biggrin: x

Gracie · October 8, 2020

Safe journey Ian and have a fab time

I shall look out for you on the web cam, give us a wave :default_icon_wave: x

grendel · October 8, 2020

we will be on the water and heading south on sunday, more a cruise in company than the normal lads week, 2 boats, 2 crews of 6, no interaction between crews, so no inter boat darts matches, and our normal meal out booked for two socially distanced tables, still we work with what we can do. if we see you we will give you a wave. we will probably be the two boats cruising along 2m apart, i have my laser range finder to ensure compliance.

Chelsea14Ian · October 8, 2020

Will do :default_icon_wave:

I am up Saturday for 10ish days.

petersjoy · October 8, 2020

Fingers crossed a week on Saturday for us. hope to have a few days, up to a week out.

I've bought a drone to see if i can get some good photos. Still learning to fly it, don't want it to end up a submarine.

We got into Oulton 16.25.Rain,sun,rain,sun all along the way.would have got here sooner if it wasn't for Sommerleyton. The bridge was 8 feet.I requested the bridge to open, but had to wait 25 minutes ,until they opened it.Still heating on now and a little Scotch. Around Hadley a brooms hire boat heading for Brundall called out my name.Not sure who it was.Photonof a boat many will know.
