  9. There's a few on my Pinterest. http://www.pinterest.com/caprifool/narrowboat-inspirations/
  10. Of corse we are not all silly. There's just enough of us to be a bit tedious.
  11. Because they need a rest from silly men constantly questioning their motives, perhaps?
  12. There's no rush and you'd rather do it well, than quick and sloppy. (Oooeer!) Stay safe, move calmly and watch your step. Specially when raining or wet. Haven't really noticed much tendencies for the boat to move towards the cill when going down hill. Normally stays close to the front gates quite obediently. But my experience is still very limited. A thermos is a good friend to have when no one's around to make your tea.

  14. Never heard of it. Ok, genuine question: I see empty houses in one area where industries have shut down. And jobs in another area with insufficient housing. People move to where the jobs are, creating more and new types of jobs serving the growing population. Housing prices rocket, making people prioritise cheap products manufactured abroad. And making it possible to make serious money just by buying and selling off property within six months, without even doing anything to improve them. Same house without tenants, changing owners multiple times until it is condemned. More Uk industries close, more people move, housing costs rise......and so on, and so on.... Where could this chain be broken? Encourage more to self employ? Help councils promote their area as desirable for new industries to move in? Lots of unemployed who'd rather work in their home town and do up one of those boarded up houses, than rent a damp cabin in a boat away from family? Where should or could one start? It hurts me, seeing young people's eyes who see no future for them selves. Their home town is a ghost town and cities are to expensive start their new life in. While everyone is blaming "the others" Whomever they might be. There used to be a ladder to get what you want in life. But now everything is on the top shelf and the ladder to short. Sorry for rambling. Been up all night taking care of a sick cat. And the mind wanders....
  15. Annie May looks like a well kept, practical no fuss boat. I do like a big sink in the bathroom to wash my smalls in as well. Also, the others suggested are saved amongst my favourites :-)

  19. I'm not a great fan of caging domestic ferrets. I've had mine free in the home and they used a litter box with low sides. They can be hard work though. And please get one from someone who breeds them as pets in their own home. But if you're looking for a fairly intelligent pet that does well in a cage I'd get a couple of rats. Edit: Or a hand fed parrotlet.

  23. Me thinks some people are being very silly. Now, how's that boat doing under that tree?
