We woke to an overcast morning and while shopping in Lathams it began to rain. It didn’t amount to much though thankfully and after photographing a brood of ducklings plus the obligatory one of the bridge, we found we were the last to leave the moorings …
It was a short hop to Thurne Dyke where we moored up and waited for a space on the windmill side. We perched on the end and then it was an easy walk for Mike to come to the shop with us.
I cannot visit here without going to the little shop and spending money! This time my main purchase was a clock …
We left after lunch and the weather was absolutely glorious!
We were lucky at Irstead as there was a spare mooring and after a short stop so that Phill could buy a decorated stone to add to his collection, we moved on across Barton Broad to Barton Turf.
Later I took Hamish for a walk …
In the evening Lisa and Steve (Sally owners) came over for a drink and a natter. It was a perfect end to the day.

Hello, Just read your blog, still trying to find the time to do mine. I noticed that you are going back in October. Well great minds, I've booked a boat from Horizon Craft, for 5th October, we hope to get under the Potter Bridge, so we got a boat with a low air draft. Which week are you going, and what boat. We might finally be able to say hi.
Still haven't finished mine! We're back in October but not on the water. I've booked a riverside cottage on the Thurne near Potter Heigham. We'll give you a wave as you pass!
Anywhere near Martham? Trying to find somewhere to moor overnight. Might tie up at the bottom of your garden. You there the same week?
Yes same week but below Potter bridge.
