We've managed to #escape the #house and are #aboard our #boat Singing the Blues again.
No idea when we'll be back aboard again. The buyers of our house visited yesterday saying their buyer is hoping to move on 23 July - so there's lots to do, starting with #packing an over big house with too much not offered to #Freegle and too much to pack.
The plan this morning is to call at #Neatishead Staithe,walk into the #village and buy a few provisions at the #volunteer run #community #shop, then make our way back down #LimekilnDyke and down the #River Ant to #LudhamBridge where we'll overnight after an evening #meal at The Dog.
We'll have to be up early as it's a couple of hours back to our #mooring and we both have meetings in #Stalham at 10:00 on Tuesday.
As predicted, the wind has veered 180° since arrival here yesterday afternoon.
We followed this morning's #plan, starting by going to #Neatishead #Staithe and buying #provisions and having a #coffee and #Norfolk #shortcake at the #community #shop.
The #dyke narrows considerably as you near the staithe but what amazed us was seeing a #Muntjac deer on the return down #Limekiln #dyke
I failed to find time to add a further update when we completed our cruise on Tuesday. From #Neatishead we passed The Ice House, one of the impressive #houses at #Irstead Shoals.
We moored at #HowHill where we spent an hour walking around the #gardens. We then proceeded to #LudhamBridge where we moored for the night, eating at The Dog where a couple of guys turned up and entertained us for half an hour. It was possibly the best impromptu #entertainment I've ever experienced. The photograph does not indicate how much #laughter there was and how we enjoyed #singing along.
We left our #mooring just before 06:45 as we needed to be back in #Stalham for a meeting at 10:00 and needed to pick up some stuff from home before that.
