  1. I was told when I was at school back in 1976 that there were more trees in Birmingham then in the New Forest. Timber in buildings has got worse because of the way we treat it. For example, we paint it with non breathable paint or we encase it in cement so the wood just goes rotton
  2. I had to Google as I thought Glynn Edwards was married to Yootha Joyce but they divorced in 1969 so it wasn't her
  3. Whilst we are talking about celebs. Derek Thompson (Charlie Fairhead in Casualty) twin sister Elaine used to live on a boat moored at Parman Marine. Jenny Hanley from Magpie used to run the Swan at Thames Ditton
  4. Decent creosote regularly applied probably helped
  5. Are you going to be using Lime based materials or are you planning to use cement
  6. It arrived at Steadfast between the summer of 81 and 84. We were moored at Parman Marine and remember seeing it. We moved to Platts Ait 1984 ish.
  7. The old navy sub is quite close to you and I am surprised you have not seen it. It was given to Steadfast Sea Cadets in Kingston upon Thames and they converted it back to a cruising narrowboat
  8. Here is the full Heatmiser manual Heatmiser.pdf
  9. 12 v goes into the Heatmiser switch on A1 and then the switch puts the 12v through to the A2 connection. Once the steam laptop powers up I will put the heatmiser manual up
  10. Hi Colin, do you have a wiring diagram for the Webasto. I shall have a look later for a softcopy and send it over
  11. The mooring is better there now that the dreadfull smell seems to have stopped coming out of the works near the yard. Do you still get the brass band practicing in the farms outbuilding there
  12. yes i know, but you shouldnt have to go through that process. Surely the estate agents details should have to show it like thay do the EPC. Just heard of a case where a person has got rid their gas boiler and got an air source heat pump. The house now has a worse EPC rating because it uses more electricity
  13. John Brindley was James Brindley's younger brother and he built and owned the first 2 potteries at Longport
  14. And the Council Tax band which is hard to change doesn't have to be displayed on websites like rightmove

  21. It could of course go through the front bulkhead and up. Which would not impede anything in narrow locks
