    It depends a lot on what you are looking for and size and ages of your party - #peace and #quiet, #birdwatching, #angling, #pubs, #nightclubs?

    Recommending places to #moor is difficult, particularly at the height of the season. If you want to eat at a pub/restaurant, most #riverside places will allow to to book a mooring, if they have any available, along with a table. If booking a mooring isn't available, then I'd arriving at the site between 15:00-16:00 even if you don't plan to eat till 20:00.

    As for deciding where to visit, the #BroadsAuthority #Visitor page is at:
    broads-authority.gov.uk/visiti
    It includes a link to its own visitor magazine, "Broadcaster" at:
    issuu.com/countrywidepublicati
    (Currently last year's issue. I think it will be updated before Easter.)

    I said the same about his voice at the time when watching the opening ceremony at the #2012Olympics!

  5. Oops! my server went off line for a period. Perhaps, I missed a maintenance announcement? Hence my delay in reporting the continuing story of tonight's visit by a #heron outside our lounge.

    As #sunset began to change the light #tuftedducks and #mallard gathered on the lake behind the heron.

    I went to transfer the photos to my computer only to have Diana reporting that now three #muntjac #deer had crossed from the neighbour's field and joined the party.

  6. The day after we arrived at #PrestonBrook I managed to rebuild all the furniture we'd taken to the #cottage

    By the end of the next day, we'd done some more #IKEA #shopping and there was a single bed in the second bedroom.

  7. I've been a bit quiet as we've been away. This was the car just before we left for a #cottage at #PrestonBrook fronting the #towpath on the #Bridgewater #canal.

    There's deconstructed #Ikea and #wayfair furniture in there as the place needed to be furnished.

  8. More important, #today, than the #compost cages was the progress made on clearing all the #grass, #reed and #sedge that had been strimmed last #Saturday.

    The first image was taken at 09:47 and the filled compost bins at 11:01. I was pleased with what I had achieved.

  9. I thought about things Diana shows me on her Facebook account. It seems it frequently feeds her images from a while ago, so I thought I might try tooting old images from our web site

    Here's am image from yesterday #10yearsago. Back then every few days I took a photo from our bedroom window. The idea was to build a #library of images that would show the changing #seasons from year to year. I'd post a group of images at the end of each month on what was then, #myblog. See:

  13. Well, we lived with the stock of #leaves by the front door for a while.

    On Thursday #thisweek I finally made the effort to collect them and put them in the #compost cages along with other leaves found on the #paths around the #grounds.

    The #lake maintenance #boat was also emptied of rain water. It was the first time I had let it get filled to overflowing.

  14. Oops! Somehow the original version of this toot got posted as a reply to a completely different topic. Apologies if you've seen it before.

    Just watching this #report of the #Bridgewater #Canal #breach that occurred this morning.

  15. Back on 18 Dec 2024 I shared an image, of #leaves before they were cleared from the front of the house.

    Just got home from time away after Christmas to find more #blown in by the #wind.

    So there's still more to add to the #compost bins.

  20. I don't think I shared this image, taken 24 #November, when I thought I'd finished #clearing the #birch and #sycamore #leaves from the trees around the front of the #house.

    Going out tonight I #discovered a host of #oak leaves that have been #blown in by the #wind. Heaven alone knows where they are from.

    Looks like there's more to add to the #compost bins.

    Well, I've often wondered if what we see out there beyond our #earthly #sky are just the the #subatomic #particles of some bigger #universe that is in fact our own. In other words we exist in some #multi-dimensional inversion of the sub-atomic particles that our physicists talk about in #quantum #theory.

    I must get round to reading A Brief History Of Time and sort this all out for everybody.

  27. #Sunset and a pair of #swans leaves the lake. We assume we lost the pair that #nested on our #island to #avianflu, but hopeful that this pair may take up residence in the #spring.

  28. Meant to include photos of our other #compost bins, made of old #pallets picked up from our local #garden #centre

    These tend to take everything other than the #autumn #leaf drop. They're a favourite place to find #grass #snake #eggs if I turn them too soon.

    Trouble with pallets is that they compost too, at an amazing rate. The remains get piled up elsewhere as a #winter #home for other small #creatures.
