SweetKingfisher1 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 We are moving Sweet Kingfisher from dear old Brundall, after being there for 6 season / years we decided to have a change of scenery . It was between going north and going to Stalham to Richardson's, so please CRicko thank Paul for his time to talk to us . After thinking about it hard, we both decided to stay on south river, so we are moving to Chedgrave to Greenways Marina and with meeting Jonathan and having a good chat, it feels right . Roll on Saturday 28th March, as this is when we will be moving our girl there . I will not miss eating in the Yare and maybe they could get a new chef plus a new menu it's the same old for how many years? Eating houses in Loddon and Chedgrave are so much better and more choice . Brundall will always be in our hearts and we do hope to return back . Fingers cross all goes well on her first cruise of the seasons.

Plus the places to eat and drink . We can't wait ️. Regard Marina ️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadScot Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hi Marina, As one who hired from the old Astons yard at Loddon for manys a year, it was the one last return trips we never felt sad on, probably as in those days with it being so narrow in places one had to give the Chet your undevided attention! I agree, there are a good choice of eating places there. Enjoy your new moorings, and a safe first trip of the season too. Iain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetKingfisher1 Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 Thanks Iain, Ian was not sure, but I got my own way I just wanted to give Loddon / Chedgrave a go . What will be good is to visit Oulton Broad and back in a day and to cruise down the River Waveney . Regards Marina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracie Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Good luck with the move Marina, agree with comments about the Chet, can be a bit tricky at times but absolutely beautiful. Hope you, Ian and your girl enjoy your new home. Loddon is such a lovely little place, we have also eaten at a few places there, I remember a little cafe/tea rooms that did a lovely full English but can't remember the name, we haven't been that way in a couple of years so maybe it's not there anymore Good Luck Grace 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyPatricia Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 If you mean Rosie Lees tea room Grace then it is still there and one of the best full English breakfasts on the broads We regularly hired from Pacific Cruisers so that was our breakfast sorted on before the drive home.

SPEEDTRIPLE Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Yes, Steve after last year cruising the Chet so many times to go and see Graham at Maffetts, you can say we got to know it . Plus the places to eat and drink . We can't wait ️. Regard Marina ️ Hi Marina, They`re the main reasons we always hired from Maffetts. A great little yard run by a great family, from a great locayion. On top of that, the eat in or takeaway choice is one of the best on the Broads, but best of all is as soon as you arrive, it`s lunch at Rosie Leas, then 1 minute to the boat. Good luck with your first cruise, and we hope you enjoy Loddon / Chedgrave as much as we ddo?. Hopefully, we`ll see you when we`re up there in May, as we won`t be on Ligghtning next weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDTRIPLE Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 That's the one Steve, thank you, good to know it's still there Grace We went through Loddon on Easter Sunday 2 years ago, and Caroline was open then. Needles to say, we stopped off for a cuppa and a cuddle with Caroline ., then on the Monday, we went there from Oulton Broad for breakfast before the customary 5 hour drive home. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadScot Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hi Grace, When we were moored at the staithe last May, my wife n her sister brought back a Mug of Latte coffee for me, very trustworthy indeed, on the assumption we would return it. If it hadn't been we had an early start for GY and slack water, the Full Breakfast would have been consumed for sure, at Rosies.

LadyPatricia Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Deb bought a whole cake to take back to her Mum and Dad who we were going to drop in to on the way home. They left the cake on a plate for her and told her to bring it back next time, which of course we will. She said she thinks she must have at least one plate in every county Lovely, friendly service 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweetKingfisher1 Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 I am going off the subject, because we have been broken into today and our laptop has been taken, with other things. All we/I have is my Iphone to chat to you all. Regards Marina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MauriceMynah Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Scum of the earth's been busy again then! Was that your home or your boat they broke in? Either way I hope they didn't take much. All I can add is that I wish you well through what I know is going to be an upsetting period ahead. Chin up, things will get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadScot Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Sadly MM the low life scum bags are always on the go.

Maxwellian Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Hope things settle down soon. Sad news. It happened to us several years ago. Took my wife ages to settle and get over it, but things soon got back to normal. Look towards the light at the end of the tunnel on this and hope it's not the train.

BroadAmbition Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 That's terrible news Marina. Did the police take prints? maybe a faint chance they can catch the scum Maybe a visit to Maplins to get a few ideas re your own cctv system - they are affordable nowadays. It won't get you your stuff back but it might give you some peace of mind/security for the future. Owt I can do? Griff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
