NorfolkNog Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Levels seem a bit more back to normal for winter. The fish barrier is down at Herbert Woods and all quiet and peaceful in the yard although we were told some boats were going out this week. Tad breezy with a westerly wind. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Aha … might this post herald a few days afloat for the Nogs? 🤔 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YnysMon Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Glad to hear the river levels are going down a bit. We are on Moonlight Shadow next week and hoping to make the Breydon crossing to come up north. Might there be Nogs about? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebell Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 I went to the boat today as materials for my building project at home failed to turn up. I had some jobs to do onboard and decided by lunchtime i should do a river trial! Only went as far as a deserted Womack Island. A breezy, but sunny day. Hope to be out properly next week…😎 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrewcook Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Hi as to having High Tides it seems to be down Two things Winds & Rain as to January was not a bad month now we are in February a very unpredictable month weather-wise it's going to be I believe for Tides.

Absolutely Helen From what I've seen levels up North are pretty much what you would expect for the time of year. I understand levels down South are pretty much settled down now. I guess the Westerly winds have helped. Very warm too. Should be a very good week on MS. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We moored in Woods yard though and Royal Light was preparing to go. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Have a lovely day wherever it takes you. Can’t hear the wind down the chimney this morning so hopefully a calmer day ahead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNog Posted February 9, 2022 Author Share Posted February 9, 2022 Right at 10.22 clearance at Great Yarmouth was 10 feet by Mrs Nog's estimation. Tiny bit choppy on Breydon but near perfect conditions. Anyone wanting to get out now's the time! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwanR Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Oh goodness. Well you’re down south. But it could still be a trick with a photo from yesterday. However Smoggy looks pretty confident so I’m presuming you might have stopped at Somerleyton. But I can’t just copy someone else’s answer so I’m off to check my folder of photos of pubs!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Noooooooo .... since a certain member left I deleted my folder of photos of pubs designed to allow the person who rarely visits a pub to stand a chance in this competition. So I'm going to guess The Falgate Inn on the off chance that Smoggy is wrong and you went there yesterday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkNog Posted February 9, 2022 Author Share Posted February 9, 2022 Ah, sorry Jean, Smoggy was right on it, Dukes Head indeed. Don't worry about the folder, do the real thing! OK, try this one 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually did, and they were named once I found out the answer. My knowledge of Broads pubs has been limited to the occasional visit for a meal.

SwanR Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Well I don’t think you went all the way to Beccles so how about Reedham. And the Reedham Ferry? I tried to zoom in on the photos on the wall! 😂 Seriously I have absolutely no idea. It will be a late night if we sit here playing guess every pub you can think of on the southern Broads. Somebody … anybody … HELP! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
