10B Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Robin, as I do not want to take over one of your excellent Blogs I have started a new thread. I had been sent to The Norfolk Broads to do an undercover review by one of the Sunday Tabloids. Positioning myself amongst the bushes in one of the major beauty spots, Horning. What a lovely peaceful place, all I could hear was the sound of the Birds singing. After about fifteen minutes a boat came slowly down the river and came to a stop in front of me, The Captain of the ship left his position at the helm and went to the stern of the boat. The Captain then fitted something, this made me sit up and my heart started pounding, it looked like a camera being positioned. : Is this what I had been sent to the Norfolk Broads to find, is it a spy, as The captain looked up I saw his face IT WAS MY HERO, THE LONDON RASCAL!!!!!!! Something must have taken his attention, the boat was drifting towards some trees on the bank. All of a sudden there was an almighty crack that sounded like a branch breaking and could be heard all the way to Wroxham. The birds scattered. The fish jumped, the cattle stampeded and the chicken at Ferry Marina layed an egg. The Rascal looked, and saw that nobody was watching and reversed silently into a mooring at Ferry Marina. I thought that I had better watch a bit longer to find out if anything was happening. Was he working for The Broads Authority checking tax discs? Or was it more sinister was he thinking how to get the chicken into the boat? The mystery deepens, will we ever know. Robin I hope this does not offend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonRascal Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Offend? Made me laugh. I was focused at the time I did not know I had caught the tree, I knew I had come close to it - but it is now I turn up the volume on the video posted at Horning and you indeed hear the brush with nature. Still tree was fine after I am sure and the boat certainly was so that's the main thing. You then caught me doing the daily boat clean and polish I think that is more embarrassing!

10B Posted July 17, 2014 Author Share Posted July 17, 2014 Robin, I did see you walking to the pub later but I was on the other side of the river or I would have come and bought you a drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
