  9. Am I right in thinking if we follow the Nene to the end, we can lock out into the Wash. From which we can transit to the Norfolk Broads? I suspect there's a bit more to it than that but we'd quite like a new adventure.
  10. Great stuff. Very helpful. Thanks to all.
  11. Very helpful. Thanks. I must say this forum has been a real bonus to boating since we joined in 2009! There's always someone who's been there before. We didn't have nearly so much internet problem on the old boat, but it had bigger windows, and I think we must have been lucky with where we went, or on reflection I didn't want to watch netflix on the boat. We never had TV on the old boat either - now we have an avtex, and one of those motorhome ariel setups. Cant say there's much on I like though! The new boat has portholes - I think that creates a proper faraday shield.
  12. That's a very useful contact, and it looks like they have a number of mooring spots. Looks comparable to the thames in terms of licence costs.
  13. I have invested in a Wifionboard setup with an ariel and huwai 535 4g router. I've been told it's a fairly reliable setup. This will require a sim card. I have a phone with an EE contract, and I can send 100Gb a month to another sim. Does that need to be another EE sim? the EE data sim contracts are not the cheapest. If I find a cheaper data sim card, from another supplier, will my Iphone on the EE contract be able to recognise the signal? Or am I best advised to bite the bullet and get another EE contract. Apologies if these are technologically illiterate questions!
  14. Hi, thinking of taking a trip up the Nene in a few weeks. Understand it's a river licence. Anything to bear in mind? I see from Pearsons there isn't a huge amount of mooring, but anything else to know in advance?

  18. I'll say thanks to Vlockies at Foxton for when we we went up back in November, and certainly did at the time. It was raining heavily, cold and a miserable day to be doing that. But they were cheerful, welcoming. They were very helpful, without topping the knob. Generally I have found them to be thoroughly good folks. can understand though that some of the 'customers' are extremely difficult individuals. Life on the cut attracts people with underlying social adjustment problems. I don't quite know what it is about canal boat cruising that brings out the inner expert, intolerant characteristics of people but it certainly seems to affect some people that way, and it's an environment where that tendency can be indulged. Luckily though, it's only some people.
  19. That is a monster. Where on earth are they going to put it if it gets evicted? It must have cost an incredible amount, and been bought in good faith, despite being a complete eyesore. On reflection - there's plenty of room further east, but I suspect the owners bought Chelsea not Rotherhithe marsh.
  20. Big tilley lamps - lovely things. I expect they will turn up on eBay in due course.
