I am his understudy, and stand in when he's unavailable. Got a long way to go to reach his level, I'm afraid. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadAmbition Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 Well that was lucky. Got alongside the green at Horning. Malanka away as is Trixie. We are enroute to Salhouse but spied a big enough mooring so now in Staithe n Willow. It’s a tad warm. Looks like the big coat ain’t getting used again Griff 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 We were going to go up there last Friday but the weed looked really bad and might clog the weed filter. What's it actually like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadAmbition Posted July 20, 2018 Author Share Posted July 20, 2018 Plenty of it on the surface at the Lock but normal before coming up the river. Fishing is rubbish though. Just been presented with a rum coffee and fresh cream scone. MrsG is smiling too. JBX5 - you may well come knocking, but not too late!

BroadAmbition Posted July 21, 2018 Author Share Posted July 21, 2018 Yet another cracking morning here at the Lock. Not a cloud in the sky. We actually had the tv out for a dvd last night. First time in eight days. Sailing shortly for New Inn at Horning. MrsG having a lie in so Macie dog will have to do the ropes n fenders Griff 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadAmbition Posted July 21, 2018 Author Share Posted July 21, 2018 The river from Coltishall to Wroxham was idyllic. Plenty of large shoals n large fish in locations noted for future reference. MrsG eventually made an appearance went for a shower whilst underway. She appeared in only a towel as we exited from under Wroxham Bridge. Perfect timing for the crowds on the bridge n hotel Onwards we proceeded, with canopy, screens and everything down we could muster, full sunshine mode. The river now was proper busy so much so I elected to scoot down Wroxham Broad to only see a flotilla of sailing craft Griff 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadAmbition Posted July 21, 2018 Author Share Posted July 21, 2018 We passed through the flotilla of confusion as they normally carry on only to come up astern of a Wherry in full sail, passed them then four bends in t river caught up another one! They’re like busses today. Here we are arrived just after 1200 at the new inn JBx5 having sorted a spot for us. It’s so hot I swear the river is steaming. Had a Cromer salad for lunch. About to sail for the Ant. We were due Home today but have delayed that evolution till tomorrow Griff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
