Hockham Admiral Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 We popped in to Brooms yesterday for a pump-out... yes, I know, they charge £16... but it's a heck of a job they do with two long flush-outs and twice the amount of blu you get anywhere else. They've dropped the price of red-diesel by 9p/L to £1.19/L! Is this a first on The Broads? So we filled up as we wish to support them as much as possible because if they close their fuel/pump-out facility (which is not just a remote possibility at the moment) it will leave a huge gap in the Southern Broads cruising area.

wayneakp Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 And dont forget they have a small chandlery / provisions store around the back - the Broom Cupboard - pick up an ice cream or some of the spares they are selling off at a bargain! Baz and I are both filling up this week - that may help them a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranworthbreeze Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 Hello John, I can not think of anywhere in or around Brundall that offer the services that the Broom's riverside fuel/pump has, please correct me if I am wrong. We always fill up here and have both tanks pumped out. Regards Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
