Done!! ;-)

It may time out after a while. I'll look into it. The problem is, as an admin, you can delete everything :ph34r: Jon

I can't seem to make this happen Let me know it its a recurring fault, and I'll ask IPB support about it. Jon

Moor in a tourist town and you'd probably get a fortune! Jon

Is this a red box on the forum system, or in a pop up message? Jon

Thanks for the links. Delete button should be under your post. Moving this to the boat handling forum... Jon

Often on this board, we use acronyms and abbreviations to describe. I am trying to put together a list of commenly used terms. A few to start of with: BW = British Waterways IWA = Inland Waterways Association NABO = National Association of Boat Owners EA = Environment Agency cut = alternative term for canal Please continue to add to the list.

Added to Calender. Jon

We hired 'York' from here during Summer of 2000. Were very impressed with boat, and took the one way cruise from Burnley on the Leeds and Liverpool to Sowerby Bridge on the Calder & Hebble. Highly recommended! Jon

Clifton boats have always looked OK to me when I have seen them. The large windows on the Napton boats are great. Its a really nice design feature. I've seen the ocasional Viking Afloat boat, they also look OK. I'm going to add these to the links directory. Jon

Hey guys, I have a contract phone from '3', and although I can get 3g signal in most towns and cities, it drops back to standard GPRS / Roaming network once out in the sticks. Re: images and bandwidth, this is something that is becoming more of a problem. For those users who want to view a low res version of these forums you can go to the Lo-Fi Version, which removes images etc. Jon

Have you had a look at Martin's guide to buying a boat? Click here to go.

I often take pictures from the bankside, however these are just at boats, normally only of those with some historic or unique interest. My view is that aslong as the boaters privacy is not being invaded then I will take the picture. On very rare occassions I'll ask permission if I think the picture will include the owner or invade their privacy. No-one has said no yet! Most of my recent photos have been at public boat shows, or major attractions, so it does not really matter anyway, Jon

Cool! Jon

Not live yet. I'm still guaging interest. Watch this space! Jon
