  1. I hate the disparaging comments from the Taylors in this vid from portholes to the fitout that was, they've got a very cheap project boat. I do hope the previous owners who loved Sefton and looked after her so well don't see this from Taylor's. Their trauma has been bad enough without this.
  2. Whenever we use Canalplanner these days, we tick the 'slow locking' box!
  3. Have you the link for this please.
  4. We saw you go past but didn't get out of the boat in time to wave!
  5. At the risk of putting people off buying my book, I was about to say the same, adding also that boats 20m and over are now more strictly regulated, (see ES-TRIN regs) with some talk of them being eventually applied to 15m and over boats. We were hoping to get back as Belgian residents to get around the Brexit restrictions but now our old Perkins won't comply over there either. And it used to all be so wonderfully laissez faire, apart from Germany!
  6. It says there's car parking on the auction details so presumably it's not a problem. https://www.onthemarket.com/details/15147997/
  7. nb. The review date is not for two month's, 22nd May, with a possible reinstatement date not in the info at all. Fingers crossed for rapid re-instatement, bad enough that the bins were removed when the iconic Stop House was sold.

  9. Wandering Snail! Although I quite like Star....
  10. He passed us a few days ago on the Shroppie heading for the Anchor.
  11. But, but, you didn't add 'sec' to 'gen' as I've pointed out so it wouldn't even have reached him!
  12. That could be why, it's gensec@nabo.org.uk.
  13. Who in NABO did you email please?
  14. Oh yes. Are CRT worried about the extra number of boats needing to use this now that Penkridge is out? Certainly there has been an unfortunate impact on the Stafford Linkway Festival in May where unless you are prepared to go a very long round, including this tunnel if you are the 'wrong' side of the lock, boats are pulling out.
