Bluebell Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Saw quite a few boats moored by the Bridge Inn, and just one on the BA side as we drove over on the way home this morning…😎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwanR Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Morning Nogs Looks like another foggy start where I am. It didn’t clear all day yesterday but I hope you enjoyed some good cruising. Happy Sunday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingFortress Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Never mind Noggin. It looks like Nogsgone. Nice to have a brief chat last night and a catch up but as you know I was a bit distracted as they were not showing the match in the pub and for some reason I could not get a signal on the TV on board 🫣 When I got back from walking the dog this morning it was Nogsgone 😳 Have a great rest of your holiday. We are heading back to home moorings today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingFortress Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Just blooming rub it in why don't you 🤪 Good call of yours not to go North of Barton Broad. Just a few isolated bits of thin ice in the wild moorings on the Ant, a bit on the edges of Barton, then bang Stalham and Sutton dykes pretty thick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouldy Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 We went up to Horning this morning to do a couple of jobs on Moonlight Shadow (how’s that for dedication from a management team member?). The drive up was stunning, with frost covered trees and a very wintery -5c showing on the car’s external temperature gauge. The basin at Horning Pleasurecraft was frozen over, too. Spent a couple of hours there, cleaning out the oven and putting new shower curtains up in the heads, before coming home and putting our Christmas tree up. And you lot thought I was a grinch. Pah!!! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 'beer' at New Inn was Doombar. serves me right for showing off!!! Appreciate the advice on the ice. Need to be careful anyway but especially when it's not your boat!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LizG Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 When were you in there???? We were there about 7 o'clock this evening. Had an agreeable Gin Mare and tonic but yes two pumps of identical Doom Bar!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingFortress Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 So what do they have on at The Swan? Must admit not one of my favourites watering holes. New Inn was good when new management took it over last year but haven't not returned, I think that says it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff were friendly and helpful and didn't boot us out early so on the whole we were happy. Ferry was closed. New Inn had 2 pumps, both showing Doombar. Had a Guinness. Staff OK but very keen to stress they were closing early. Didn't try the grub. So not turning cart wheels, may have a trip to Cromer today and into the Red Lion. Great beer choice and Black Shuck gin for Mrs Nog. Bit warmer today too! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkNog Posted December 12, 2022 Author Share Posted December 12, 2022 Safely tucked up in Faircraft Loynes yard. Need to watch for ice but keeping a sharp eye on the situation. Ice on Salhouse and Wroxham Broads. Moorings at Horning very busy! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LizG Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 As we drove through the village, I looked for you but all I could see were private boats! It was just before 9 so suspect you had already moved on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meantime Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 If you make it to Oulton Broad Howard, I can recommend the Tinsel Toes in The Wherry. Thin ice starting to form here now though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget that last comment they told me they were closing sometime for a new kitchen but not at this moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
