NorfolkNog Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 I think the pizza is a bit of a house speciality in the Rl Iain. Might be a chance of a Humpty Dumpty too Adam and Eve also good and might have to drop in the Wig and Pen too. After all it would be rude to pass without going in 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadScot Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I parked "Scoot" at the door outside the Red Lion. Very friendly and polite staff there. Don't have the Chilli unless used to hot ones! Iain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain. You're right there Iain, lovely pub. Fortunately I'm not a big chili fan so I'll take your advice and stick with the beer.

JawsOrca Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Oh geez it's looking busy... Ok here goes: Dear other boaters. the southern broads are closed this weekend... and it's boring down here nothing to see... the northern rivers have lots of windmills and Wherrys and everything else you want to see.. You won't get under the bridges at Yarmouth and breydon water is like the north atlantic in January.. Stay north (Please)... Geez I'm really going to have to learn how to use this sterndrive now... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gracie Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 To all Boaters, I think Jaws may have got it slightly wrong as in fact, the Southern Rivers are to remain open and I think you'll find it is especially nice around Somerleyton this time of year, a couple of restored Boats can be seen and I am sure if you ask nicely the owners would gladly offer you a drink and a look see also may take lots of you out for a trip where you will be able to perfect the royal wave Grace 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkNog Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 This is the really sad part having to hand the boat back. Many thanks to Swancraft for all their help and support, superb service and lovely people too. The boat ran like a dream and used only 80 litres of fuel in 2 weeks so I waa very happy with that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracie Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Thank you Howard for the info on the pubs and BEER and the lovely photos, sorry it's over once again for you. That awful feeling when you leave Norfolk is the one part of a Broads holiday I hate, you can always have a beer when you get home, might numb the pain a little Grace 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
