    August 2, 2024 in England ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C

    Well they didn't exactly rush to get up un goin this morning, so it was afternoon before the bikes come down off me rear. Thems gunna bike into Wroxham for a look around. Himself fancies a boat ride, her ain't keen but I spose she'll go.

    Well if it wasn't for Roy's, Wroxham would only consist of Fish un Chip shops, she counted 4. Roy's started as a corner shop, it's now the largest ever corner shop incorporating a supermarket with a McDonald's. Over the road is a Roy's department store, there's also a separate Roy's toy shop, garden centre and DIY centre , God help Wroxham if he closes down. She's treated herself to a hat tu keep sun off her head, dow think much of the ribbon round it, that's gotta gu, for summit a bit less flowery, but it's okay.

    They finds a boat trip, 90 minutes on the Vintage Broadsman boat, a looky likey paddle steamboat . A gentle cruise along the broads with informative commentary. They pass some beautiful houses, the oldest, a little thatched cottage and the newest, a multi-million £ super modern mansion. They even pass one originally owned by old time musical performer George Formby, (remember the picture and story Kath) . A bit of wildlife on the way and lots of boats and they both enjoyed a lovely trip.

    Back on the bikes retracing their route alongside the narrow gauge railway line back to me, whose spent all day on me own after the other caravan left this morning, a good day .
