No you are not being wound up but as my partners name is mayall and the first name begins with b having followed canalworld for some time without registering before it was irresistible.
Thanks for the answers. No I didn't pay the surveyor he offered that as an opinion based on experience. Said the welding was very poor with lots of use of body filler even on the bottom palte. Boat is from 1996 by the way. have also found out noe that the broker has had it fail 2 surveys already so a little p offed hat they didn't say so in the first place. No money has changed hands hooray. Now looking for a Les Allen or a Norton Caines on advice and happy to wait.
Will then become a CC in the Manchester area
