Get on YouTube and search for eye splicing, quite straightforward to do.

When did the paddle gear change on the bottom lock...? -
But when the data shows multiple numbers boats traveling through a narrow lock at the same time there may be suspicion raised and licenses revoked.
-
I keep considering replacing my tillar bar for one slightly longer as I can't close the rear doors and steer comfortably from the step with the current one.
-
Dealing with ridiculous FOI requests must waste loads of money that could possibly fix a paddle or two.

Today, 2022 Waiting for Gailey lock.
-
I had a few stones thrown going down Ryders Green, managed to catch some of them and threw them back at the kids. Had a mattress and a big sack of kindling between Minworth and Curdworth, I knew it was coming as I watched the kids dragging it down the lane towards the bridge so stopped the boat as they were about to push it over the parapet so it didn't land on me.

Or you could take a dip like @TheBiscuits

Sounds like someone left the Tapton.

Isn't the last two digits the year of examination, ours runs out this year and ends /20 so I would suggest yours was done in 2019 and therefore has expired.

And it being a wide lock. -
When we used to hire we often hired a boat that had no hire company details on it so looked like a private boat and I found we got a different reception at locks to when we hired something that had a company name on it. With the unmarked boat people would be happy to slate hire boaters, but I then liked to point out we were hiring.

Moving Marina - Tattenhall to Droitwich Spa - best route?

Holliday Wharf has to be one of the windiest points, I've tried holding the boat there waiting for someone to get off the water point and ended up pinned to the opposite bank. -
Nothing wrong with the song in the right place which this thread wasn't.
-
It is an electric drive and seems to like going round in circles.
-
They didn't look very jolly when I was heading towards them towing a butty, if they had known which side to be on it would have helped.
-
Not going to get in to a discussion on this thread but rules or not, given the subject of the thread that song is not appropriate and in my view tasteless, therefore it should not be a post in this thread.
-
They are still bookable in Birmingham from the go boat web site so I presumed they were returning. Having just tried to find an available date there weren't any so hopefully they have been moved.
-
I agree and have reported the post as inappropriate.
-
Feb 29 was in last year's mooring fee.
-
Maybe the way they have quoted it is misleading as it runs 1st April to 31st March which is 364 days. Yes they emailed us a PDF, as license doesn't renew until October won't find out until then if we need to provide that to CRT.
-
Our marina has issued us a new style receipt this year which shows the marina details, boat details and the number of nights paid for which is 364 so we can provide evidence to CRT when renewing our licence.
