Guest Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Looks like the Yare to me but I'm not sure whereabouts. Is it just downriver from Rockland Dyke? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnm Posted November 30, 2008 Author Share Posted November 30, 2008 Best widen your thinking a bit! Let's try for the river first - big hint, we haven't had it yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 This is just a little bit tricky, if you don't mind my saying so. All we have to go on is (a) a river, ( some trees, © a post, which may be telephone or electricity, (d) what looks to my eye to be a sunset rather than a sunrise, suggesting we are facing sort of west-ish, depending on the exact time of year (or I may be wrong and it may be a sunrise, in which case sort of east-ish) and (e) the fact that nobody has named the river yet. So, we've ruled out the Yare and the Waveney and - and - well, that's it, really. Hmmmmm - looks too wide for the Chet, doesn't look like the Thurne or the Ant, so I'm going to go for the Bure.

johnm Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 OK bigger hint needed then! It's definitely in the north. It isn't the Bure. Don't forget my signature - saily havens are us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNog Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 To be honest, when I first saw the pic I thought the Ant between How Hill and Irstead. I just think the width of the river looks s bit deceptive. But then I'm probably way off the mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Given that it's not the Bure, but is in the north, it's got to be either the Thurne or the Ant. Then we have the cryptic "saily haven" clue - Hickling? Or Barton? I'm going to plump for the Thurne, probably somewhere above Potter Bridge on the way to Hickling - say around Martham?

Broadsword Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Why do you lot always jump south first? Thurne, approaching Potter from Womack, just as the bungalows begin, might have worked, but that would be a funny direction for a sunset!

Broadsword Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 So, that being the case... I am guessing it must be coming down from Martham towards Potter Heigham, just down from the Martham moorings... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 It's warmer down south and I like warm. No seriously, it just looked a little wide for any of the northern rivers to me, so I really did think it would be the Yare or Waveney.

Guest Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 So that's 2 of us who've voted for Martham, Danny - I think we must therefore be correct, whatever John might say ... Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnm Posted December 6, 2008 Author Share Posted December 6, 2008 So that's 2 of us who've voted for Martham, Danny - I think we must therefore be correct, whatever John might say ... Apologies for the delay in responding, but work and connectivity problems at home have kept me out for a while So - between Martham and Potter is correct Can Danny (or anyone else) narrow it down from the summer daylight shot below - taken from about 20 ft upstream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 Please, Sir. Me Sir. Please Sir,me!!!! As this is only 400 yds from home, maybe I'll let others guess. Oops. Now I've told you all the answer, "400 yds from Expilot's home,"!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnm Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 "400 yds from Expilot's home,"!! A bit more than that surely It usually takes me at least 3/4 hour to get to yours - mind you I do have to sail through the 'Dondrums' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
