Springsong Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 That first link was tremendous, I have not seen that one before. Old Nat Bircham and a few other faces I recognize but cannot name, other than Paul Bown who I think is still skippering Albion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdnamsGirl Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 The sailing club films are wonderful Coincidentally, I created a Norfolk Broads on Film section for the website last week which gathers together all of the old cine films I've uploaded to the Broadland Memories YouTube channel and links to the various playlists of other old Broads footage which I put together on there. All divided into the individual decades between the 1930s and 1990s. The film side of the archive is growing steadily and I thought I ought to make more of a feature of it on the main website rather than just the simple link to the YouTube channel that I did have http://www.broadlandmemories.co.uk/page338.html I also uploaded the first of a collection of films taken by one family over the course of 20 years of holidays on the Norfolk Broads which very kindly were given to me - this one is from 1965 I am now able to get a bit of time to myself again, so I've made a start on working on the website again, albeit in a more limited capacity than before ... but it's a start. There will be more new films and photos to come in the coming months. I also have further films which I haven't even viewed yet, let alone had digitised.

Happy Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Adnams Girl. Very nice to watch this. Took me back a few years! The only things that seem not to have changed are the ducks and swans! Regards Alan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polly Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I tried to pick up some of the registration numbers, only found S442 Dabchick. I am intrigued by M12 with a Martini logo on the sail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JennyMorgan Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 Polly, there was a Martini on Oulton Broad many years ago, don't remember much about her. To save me ploughing through all the above films which one has the Martini on? Might jog my memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyMorgan Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 Found the picture of the sail, not much of a clue. Fairly certain that she was a local class that never really caught on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeoffandWendy Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Very nostalgic. Wouldn't it be nice if we could turn the clock back. I remember the 1950s, when I was growing up, life was so much slower in those days. But it is nice to look back as to what it was like back then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JennyMorgan Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 Back in the 1950's I was shunted off to boarding school at a place called Taverham Hall, on the banks of the River Wensum in Norfolk. Curtailed my boating a bit during term time but the fishing was wonderful, so very privileged to have some of the finest roach and dace fishing in England at that time on hand.

BroadScot Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 What were dinosaurs really like Iain? How did you know I lived in Jurassic Park, Tim? The only dinosaurs then are the same ones as now, that are "employed" at Westminster as MPs Some for not much longer! Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
