Still a work in progress but I have now got a usable printed timing tool for the 1500. To make it involved learning how to use CAD software which was an interesting lockdown distraction.
It took about 9 hours to print in total, I'm sure the printer settings can be tweaked a bit to reduce that, perhaps that'll be the next lockdown project.

Indeed, no one questions that you are doing it 'right', but not many have your land-based facilities.
Who was it, just a couple of days ago, who said they'd put the liquid in the hedge bottom and the part-composted solids in the bin ?

I managed to persuade the boss to let me have a 4WD vehicle as a company car (well I needed it for launching the boat on the beach), Car delivered and as part of the sale I was given a 'one day course' on off-roading in an old quarry - amazing what it would do !!!
Anyway the following week it snowed heavily roads blocked etc etc so I decided to visit one of our branches at Aldridge.
The roads thru the industrial estate were compacted to ice but I kept going until I got to a hump-backed bridge over the canal - it was very 'polished' due to the number of cars that hadn't made it up but I got 'up and over' and then noticed a milk float sideways across the road with a couple of huge RSJ's on the back. It was going nowhere. I then slid sideways into the milk float and the RSJ went thru the rear door and across the rear seat.
I didn't half get 'some stick' when I got back to the Manchester office "got a 4WD, trained how to drive it, 1st time a bit of snow and you crash it."
Without studs nothing grips on ice !

A giant swan would have made an excellent CaRT on the water employee. Checking boat licenses, mooring overstaying, anglers permits and slowing down speeding cyclists. Enforcement would come with a broken arm from a single wing blow. Much more effective.
If the swan is hissing, your license is missing!
Broken arm. What's the reason? You're fishing out of season!

I've never seen a white back cabin range but some did come in vitreous enamelled finishes around the 1940's. There's currently a Belle on Ebay in grey, and in my restoration corner there's a Dover that was originally green and a tiny Bandera No1 in pale grey.
The problem is the enamel suffers from corrosion quite easily and is very expensive to have refinished. There's only a couple of places in the country that do it and as the process involves grit blasting and heating to an extremely high temperature there's a good chance of breakages on fragile parts.

It's not a new logo, though, is it? The big information signs at places like Foxton have the logo and the sweeping different blue colours -- and they've just used a bit of the shape rather than the logo on its own. Such as on the vans as above, or this downloadable map:

Who is going to know you are running a boat on diesel that has not had the relevant duty paid?

But then the writing on the switch would be upside down!
But yes, that is probably the best idea.

The proposed scheme requires sellers to buy fuel at full duty (and VAT) and claim back the rebated duty. Currently they buy at the lower rate of duty and collect any extra from purchasers.

The Canal & River Trust has a statutory obligation under the 1968 Act to maintain the Grand Union Canal for wide beam boats max 3.81 metres (12 ft 6 in) beam between Camp Hill and Berkhamsted. It can (and does) impose navigation restrictions e.g. for passage of the tunnels.

Certainly with "3" they are not "locked" but what they do do is put a fixed APN in there which effectively means you can't use them on another network without resetting the APN to auto. Takes seconds to do and then it's just a case of swapping the SIM.

Well it’s a breach of licence conditions. So restrict licence etc etc.
My vote cut up for key rings.

What is needed now is a movable width restriction at the A45 bridge just north of Braunston Junction, which is only unlocked when a wide boat passage is scheduled.

Worth considering joining the Camping & Caravan Club or similar.

They will forward book from one site to another if required. We have always found their sites to be clean and tidy. They also gave us a full refund for a site we had booked last year but couldn't go because of COVID.
