Never mind Narrow Boat Trips, I'd need a Fat Boat Trip. Perhaps I'd have to go to the Norfolk Broads.

9 of us spent a week on a Narrow Boat once, worst weeks holiday I've ever had. Everything that could go wrong, went wrong.
Not one of us was speaking to anyone else by the end of the week.
But my...........how we laugh about it now.............
Been on the broads lots of times, only 2 disasters ( 3 if you count the poor old sod who died in the pub next to the couple we were with).
