The tug of life



Yet more rain and high winds and the Wensum here at Hellesdon is awash with water. Still waters run deep - so by inference , fast flowing waters run shallow - I think a geographer would agree with that.

The river itself just wants to get rid of the excess baggage - a bit like the Atkins diet for medium and large rivers.

Back at Great Yarmouth we were treated to a guided tour by the Port Authority thanks to Ross. Highlight of the visit was watching a grain vessel being towed in by a very active tug. I think we should all have a tug to guide us through those tricky corners of life.

Does a tug guide, or just pull us where we can't get ourselves. Is there a difference? Still, water's run - deep!
