Recently held in the first weekend of September, the Horning Water Carnival attracted a variety of bedecked boats to the River Bure between Salhouse and Ranworth. Great fun was obviously had by all involved and all in support of the local charities: Quidenham Children's Hospice, Horning Village Church and Rainbowe Children's Nursery.

If you wish to help any of the charities with further support, please contact Tricia at Boulter Marine, Ferry View Estate, Horning, Norfolk. NR12 8PT

Unfortunately I was unable to attend the carnival, living too far away, however, I am endebted to colleagues from the www.the-Norfolk-Broads.co.uk forum for allowing me to use their photographs from the day's festivities.
