Hello Everybody.

[Alpo]

Been lurking on the various forums for some time now  but decided to sign up to answer a question from another member.

Well, I am here now and raring to go for a trip possibly next week if the weather settles down a bit and we get some cooler temperatures.

Best wishes.

I am not a local but have been a visitor to Norfolk for years in caravans, camping and boating.

Yep, I am a stinky, in more ways than one.

I must admit that when at home I am partial to a couple of cans of Kronenbourg, its probably one of the better tasting lagers. Also I like to put some on the boat for when I am tied up on a wild mooring and cant get to a pub.

I find that nothing quells the fire after a curry better than a Kronenburg, or maybe a Cobra.

Yes, Cobra tastes good too. I am not too keen on weak wishy washy lagers though, with me a beer/lager has to have a bit of a bite to it to hit the spot.

Warm welcome to the forum :)

Oh dear, still have not got out on the boat this year. What is this weather doing? I am not very good with very hot weather so anything over 25 degrees is a no no and dangerous for me due to health reasons,  and what else have we had? Yep, wind, rain dull miserable skies.

Hopefully after the August Bank Holiday when the World and its duck will be out on the water I will stir into action. The weather is usually a bit more settled in September and virtually no mozzies.  So it will probably be just a couple of weeks this year when I have been used to six to eight weeks a year on the water on various waterways.
