CMC Norfolk Broads

Just returned from two weeks at CMC Norfolk Broads,and what a fortnight it was.

Excellent site and excellent weather,friendly fellow campers and two wins at the quiz night at the local pub,what else could anyone want ?

Visited Lowestoft,Gt.Yarmouth and to crown it all SWMBO treated us to a day boat on the Broads to celebrate our wedding anniversary.

As for the Cadiz,not a whisper ( apart from SWMBO blowing the microwave fuse ),unlike the chap next door to us who had water dripping from the Stargazer sunroof on a £30K Bucaneer,he was not best pleased.


I may have mentioned previously that we were having trouble with the Isabella Eclipse side panel adaptor.it would always end up with a bad kink in it.



Anyway after contacting Isabella and discussing the matter with Steve Biggs ( he of the You Tube videos ) it came to light that we were feeding the adaptor and side panel through the awning rail,no this is not how it goes.

It simply pegs straight down the side of the van.












So if you are having problems there you are,all is solved.

I did point out to Mr.Biggs that the instructions,such as they are,could point this out as it seems counter intuitive.



A while ago I purchased a new set of Tefal Ingenio saucepans which weren't cheap.

I found that the non-stick coating was getting scratched as the van jostled around as they nestle inside each other.

I had it suggested to me to try some pan protectors,like these from E-Bay :-

Pan Protectors

They are cheap and work very well .



Finally,whilst away I heard a whisper that may contradict my assumption on the fate of the Unicorn from a previous post.

I was told from a dealer via a third party that next year a Unicorn 5 will be introduced and that it will be unlike previous Unicorns,so much so that it will be known as the "Black Edition".

Now this may be gospel or it may be a load of hogwash,I just retell it for what it is worth.

So if you are thinking of swapping and there is no urgency it may be worthwhile hanging on,it just might be true.

Oh the other thing I was told is that it will be around £30K.

  1. That's a p*ss poor account of your actual time in Norfolk Bosun! Where did you get to in the day boat? Which pub let you cheat at the quiz?? Did you try the Ferry at Stokesby?? Come on, more detail sire!
