  1. Not even in office yet, and Reform UK are pledging to spaff council tax on lawyers to try to keep their councillors in pay and frustrate local government reforms that would stop West Norfolk being run from Norwich:

    Reform to launch legal challenge to block plans to split Norfolk in three

    Reform UK taking legal action to stop reforms. You wouldn't make it up!

  2. Multi-million transport funding deal will ‘make town a more attractive place’

    Yes, this is brilliant, at long last connecting active travel from North End and North Lynn directly along Railway Road to The Walks, the stations and the new library by remodelling the A148 and replacing some underused pavement, two or three parking spaces and an underused fourth northbound lane.

  3. This is the same Road Safety Team that objected to a #cycleway continuing across a junction but approved this as a better solution in #kingsLynn #NorfolkUK - I feel the main reason this hasn't killed anyone yet is that most people ignore it and rejoin the carriageway before the end of the road, or turn left and U turn (the "primary" cycle route continues on-road away from the camera). Or give up cycling this route after one attempt and drive because that's what #NorfolkCountyCouncil expect

  4. A primary route closed for more than two years. No-one should say Norfolk takes active travel seriously while stuff like this happens, and council support for walking is usually much more than for cycling!

  5. One thing that happened while I've not been tooting is that we've agreed the sale of our house, so it's time for a clear out.
    I no longer use either of these #amps, a #Fender Stage 185 and an #Ashdown Electric Blue 180 #bass amp
    They're advertised on #Gumtree. You'll have to collect from #NorfolkUK.

    Still #raining here. Record rain recorded for #February in the UK, especially my county, #NorfolkUK, and for the whole period from October, but at least it makes for an interesting #sunset, as the #pigeons begin to #roost

  7. There's been a #TVadverting campaign shown in #NorfolkUK for a #funeral directors that includes a #motorcycle #hearse

    I hadn't expected to attend a funeral that used one.

    Tomorrow is Diana's chemotherapy session. Hopefully, the water leak will be sorted by the end of the day and we can have another go at getting to our mooring on Saturday. However, fixing the leak requires the shower tray to be lifted (probably for the first time in 45 years), so who knows how smoothly it will go.

    Your image reminds me of one I took more than a decade ago.
    It was an amzing day. I got to sail with a retired Thames Sailing Barge captain who was contemplating buying a #seahawk #yacht like mine. I was also allowed to sail the #tideway #dinghy he owned. The photo is found about halfway through the tale at:

  10. Disaster!
    Singing the Blues has a #BoatSafetyScheme failure notice.
    I think it's a clear case of our surveyor letting us down with an inadequate survey.
    Read the details at:
    gregafloat.org.uk/safari/23081

    I've emailed the folk at imarest.org/ and given them the details asking whether they feel I have a case against our surveyor and asking how to proceed. No response yet!
