Boating on the Norfolk Broads age 36.
When I was 21, I went on a barge trip to the Norfolk Broads with a few friends. It was an amazing trip.
The best thing about it I felt, was that each day you were in a different places so it was like several holidays in one. Just like my trip to Skye, I decided to go back , with a few of the original crew (pardon the pun).
In this picture, we pulled back the boat canopy and relaxed near Great Yarmouth.
Two people that weren't on the original trip were the now famous Frank, and Tony.
We found a really nice pub in Norwich, this is Frank and Tony relaxing to have a drink.
After dark, my friend Lee reads a book on the back of the boat.
Here Lee is pictured at the helm.
Lee was one of the original crew, who was with us, when the boat police stopped us for speeding (7mph) and fined us £260.
Tony has a reputation as a bit of a hell raiser. We found a pub called the "wild man" and it seemed appropriate to photograph him in front of it.
For no particular reason, I took a picture of some swans at the back of our boat.
I found out later, that all swans are the sovereign property of the Queen wherever they reside.
