Adnams and Bitterns
YC has just returned from a week sailing on the Norfolk Broads on Mimosa with Andy & Lois. Conditions ranged from a flat calm to a three reefer, and April showers to glorious sunshine. Places visited included Thorpe Gardens, Loddon, and the place we do like [Beccles].The bird watchers on board were in seventh heaven at the sightings of avocets on the Waveney mudflats at Turn Tide Jetty, and a bittern near Collier's Dyke (river Waveney). The beer drinkers on board were equally pleased with the superb Adnams available during the week. Rumour has it that Adnams is packed full of antioxidants that are excellent for keeping those nasty free radicals at bay. It's a rumour that YC is more than happy to subscribe to.
