BroadScot Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Mind you - I have witnessed plenty of crashing about on the Broads. Polly why do you believe the Broads gives more flexibility - surely that is subjective! I always thought they tell you to have a "smashing" time on the Broads! Iain.

donnygeoff Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I was hoping next week would be in Scotland and the Wheel..... If Scotland is the week after, Sunday 5th, it will be funny watching them, while I am moored somewhere between Falkirk and Edinburgh.... Blerdy typical........

littlesprite Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 I would never have dreamt of a canal holiday in London, yet episode 2 certainly wet my appetite to give it a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soundings Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I would never have dreamt of a canal holiday in London, yet episode 2 certainly wet my appetite to give it a try. Me to, Martin. I had always sort of thought it might be interesting but now I'm hooked on the idea. Now how long will it take me to get there from Brandon Creek!

BroadScot Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 For this sundays canal trip, it may be best to put subtitles on The Falkirk accent is a strange one, its neither Westie nor Eastie, maybe its to do with it being in the CENTRAL belt Geoff, look at the BBC Weather website, get the factor 5 looked out, double figure temps!

JennyMorgan Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Think I'll stick to Norfolk's very own canal, The New Cut! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadScot Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 JM I hope they film the Falkirk Wheel properly, its a clever piece of engineering. Iain 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadScot Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 The last time I cruised down the New Cut, it appears to be becoming narrower and narrower, (Marker posts) so maybe only fit for narrow boats soon! Iain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranworthbreeze Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I am glad to get to the end of the New Cut, nothing to see, just chugging along for what seems mile upon mile of what feels like a run down waterway in sad need of maintenance. It even make the journey from Reedham to Breydon almost refreshing. Regards Alan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
