From the forum rules and guidelines "Our aim is to provide a forum for focused, high quality discussion.

For the amount of money I pay for the licence, I think they can send a proper licence to me, if not, do away with displaying. Before anyone hollers about money saving objectives, this is a drop in the ocean when compared to the amounts of money they frequently waste.

Exactly. Have a greenie
-
Point acknowledged.

Throwing my own theory in, I suspect it was all such a hash up at the time, it left them not knowing what had been discussed and agreed from one day to the next.Given that many from BW still work within the "CRT", and having experienced how they work from close up, I can give my theory some credit I think. My own view is that CRT are not fit for purpose, and I would prefer it back in government hands. At least than we would have a say.

Absolutely chap

Which of course is covered by the licence fee. I suggest that is what it means, although I accept some of you would argue that point to suit your own agendas.

And that is the cusp of it.

Very thoughtful of you, but at the end of the day, it's not an issue you developed. I like queing, it's part of our culture in this country, along with being considerate and tolerant.

There are, but they don't hold authority.

You wouldn't be breaking anything, your overstay would be reasonable, under the circumstances. CRT should be aware of the situation with the Thames, and most importantly, give you the benefit of the doubt. Rather than deciding we are all criminals and out to break the law. Bear in mind, your a paying customer.

Ok, you didn't feel threatened, but in fact you were worried enough about it, and consequently felt the need to justify your predicament. That's fair enough, but it could have been just as easily rectified by the number checker or eo when on their rounds. You shouldn't feel the need to justify something when you are doing no wrong (in a simple world of course).

A fair point. CRT as a navigation authority should be aware of hazards like this, and if concerned about a boat noticed to be overstaying, should then make contact perhaps. I can see that the op has decided to pre empt CRT by notifying them himself. His choice of course, and in the present climate, probably a wise one. One day, CRT may well learn to think of boat owners as an asset, and treat them accordingly.
-
This of course "could" be as a direct result of people discussing it. Making CRT aware of how situations "really" can develop. So win win for all

Vince Moran is responsible for that. In 2014 he specifically stated that the North was being neglected in favour of the south. He set out to rectify that, and obviously it's paid off to a certain extent.

editor@narrowboatworld.com Try the above. Your particular style may well appeal to him ( that is if it hasn't already)

So the boat sunk. Some of the stuff on the towpath, has possibly been rescued from the canal to stop it from fouling. The guy has not been back to sort it all out yet? Anyway, some kind soul has decided to "plaster" it all over the internet and collect some brownie points. Clever.

Greenie. That's a really nice gesture, and I think he should accept your offer. I feel there is nothing wrong with his pump, it just needs a proper bleed.
