Liam Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 If you are going to sink, it's best being in Carls neck of the woods. He has lots of experience!
NB Alnwick Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 I would be pleased to help if I knew where it is . . .
Liam Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 If you are going to sink, it's best being in Carls neck of the woods. He has lots of experience! - This is not a dig at Carl... just saying that I have heard he has raised alsorts of boats all over the place.
NB Alnwick Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 If you are going to sink, it's best being in Carls neck of the woods. He has lots of experience! NORTY! VERY NORTY!!!

If it is Hillmorton then I am happy to nip up there but Boatbot's profile says Leighton Buzzard, which is a bit out of range, before the weekend.
Leonie Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 According to the profile it says boatbot is in Leighton Buzzard so a good guess would be the Grand Union? What I'd like to know is how/why you think/know the boat is sinking if you are out of the country? Did someone contact you about it and if so, why didn't they help stop it sinking?
NB Alnwick Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 - This is not a dig at Carl... just saying that I have heard he has raised alsorts of boats all over the place. Pleased to see that added!
dove Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 If it is Hillmorton then I am happy to nip up there but Boatbot's profile says Leighton Buzzard, which is a bit out of range, before the weekend. Bridge 72 is Moors Lane at Hillmorton. Andrew
Theo Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 NORTY! VERY NORTY!!! I've sent him a PM in hopes that it pops up and gets him to pay attention. N
boatbot Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Posted October 14, 2009 Could it be on the N Oxford just above Hillmorton? N Sorry I didn't answer but its 2am and very late!

NB Alnwick Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 I've sent him a PM in hopes that it pops up and gets him to pay attention. N So did I! Anyway now that we know - who is going to Hilmorton? I cannot get there until the morning because I am already booked out by the OH tonight.

NB Alnwick Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 I can get up there by about 6pm. Is the bilge pump accessible or should I take one up, with me? Carl's call by the look of things - do keep us all informed Carl . . .

We are a couple of hours away by road. Anyone closer? N
NB Alnwick Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Boat name or number? Richard I hope that when Carl gets there he won't find more than one boat listing and sinking!
tomsk Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 I think it's Leighton Buzzard Clearly I was wrong!!
Theo Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 We are a couple of hours away by road. Anyone closer? N Just seen Carl's reply. It looks as if we are not required. N
