easter is here at last, this for me, is the start of my season and hopefully a long warm summer.

like the rest of all river locations, the weather is not what we all would like, but it is only the third week in march

so time is still on our side.

i still have jobs to do but nothing major so i will be out and about this weekend

1. It's great
2. Not yet, this is the first weekend I've been able to use her when she's all mine.
3. She's still on the Sharpness. (not subject to massive flooding I believe)
4. No, not home yet, I'm arranging that for next week.

i have been looking at a couple of webcams on the broads this morning and they have had a fair amount of snow overnight, also the water levels are still a bit on the high side

The weather yesterday in Gloucestershire was sunny periods, and a 10 MPH wind. it actually got warm enough for T Shirts under the canopy.

I got an hours run up the Sharpness, and a pub lunch in, it was a lovely day.

We went over on Sunday and pressure washed the Moorings to get rid of the silt! after i had nicely brushed it all of last week!! typical!
And i cleaned out the Toilet compartment as all the walls had gone mouldy....nice!

believe it or not, the weather man on our local tv station has given us some decent stuff this week, but!!!

he has told us not to get carried away as there is every chance of plunging temps and a flutter of snow for the weekend.
