    For a British holiday with a difference on a boat, always choose Hamilton’s Water Breaks. With the melting of the polar ice caps, most of East Anglia will be underwater in the next thirty years. So make the most of the stunning fens before the floods come, causing a little concern for these local farmers I chatted to.
    This is my wife and I going off to the local marketplace, where we could buy anything from plimsolls to posters of famous Hollywood stars.

    @0:26 As a kid, I had two 'Broads' holidays with my parents in the 70s but even now can remember most of the place names and boat details. For our first holiday (1973) we hired a boat from Moores of Wroxham, while our friends who had been before opted for a boat from Matham Boats
    It was decided (why ? who knows) to meet for our first night at Horsey Mere, where the windmill is.
    Our friends had a short journey from Martham, which looks to be about 3 miles
    We had to travel from Wroxham, which is 17 miles .. a long way on a boat.
    We even arrived at the Potter Heigham after the bridge pilots had gone home for the day. Dad, who had actually been a keen sailor/boatsman for many years went through anyway. When we finally arrived at Horsey Mere our friends asked .. what kept you ?
    It was a great holiday and we returned again the following year, this time three families, all hiring Moores boats🛥🛥🛥
