    Was it a fender to fender nudge as he just drifted in to you.  Or was it a metal on metal glance of e.g. starboard bow side against port stern side. which meant he would have carried on alongside after the impact until he could stop ?etc etc

    Also I wonder why the mouthy wife didn't come up to her bow while hubby was at the tiller and communicate with you.

    I'd rather have a chance of things getting fixed rather than be a member with voting rights.

     

    The Stratford was barely navigable when CRT took it over in 1988 from the NT who spent next to nothing on it since the David Hutchings restoration in 1964.

    CRT don't deserve the credit for all those years from 1988. They weren't around then, thank goodness.

    It could be on a separate metre to the marina, of course, it costs 15p per unit.

    I think I pay 2p per unit for admin/infratructure of the supply. There is a £50 deposit as well ...... money in Marina coffers, not mine.

    It was cheaper before metrication when it came by the yard☺️

    Utter rubbish!

    This is NO different to DVLC releasing the names and address of a car's registered owner to the same Council for a parking infringement in one of their car parks.

    In certain circumstances the registered owner/keeper is not obliged to name the driver.

    Long story which I shan’t bore you with but just today I paid £160 because the stinking, cheating, lying, money-grabbing, scamming scroats who put a faulty machine in a local car park which took my £3 payment denied that I’d paid. 

     

    There. I feel better now. 

    Should have gone to Specsavers

     >Parking Tickets, Fines & Parking

    Almost certain to have saved you £160.

    The developer is Waterside Places, a Limited Liability Partnership between C&RT and Muse. Waterside Places is the new name for ISIS Waterside Regeneration.
    Waterside Places is also responsible for development at Brentford Lock West and Islington Wharf.
    Part of the development is being funded by two Public Funding Agreements with the Greater London Authority.

    Would be interested to see their logo. Has it been re-designed lately ?

    A bit hard on the toffees (but only a bit).

    It's noticeably only because the average football fan remembers 1966 for something else.

    Yes, West ham won the World Cup.   But that same year they were well and truly whupped in the League Cup Final.

    Hi Mike

     

    I dont have a clue how to load it on here so I will type it verbatum

     

    Reminder: Moored up for more than 14 days? please continue your journey.

    Dear Tim 

    To make sure everyone has a fair chance of mooring on our canals and rivers its important that boaters respect the movement requirements and cruise to a new place at least once a fortnight.Weve been looking at our sighting records and they suggest that your boat blah blah has been moored in the same general area for more than 14 days.

    If this is not the case or you have any questions please give me a call on 01908 681277 so you can have a chat to us about your circumstances. remember to quote your boat index number and to tell us where your currently moored.

    If you have been moored up for longer than 14 days please continue your journey to avoid action for overstaying.

    You can find out more about mooring rules on our website blah blah

    Our email was a little more threatening because it included the words "action for".   Perhaps they decided to tone it down a bit

  11. This one?

    Richard

    Or maybe something like this:

     

    Air-Filter-N301715.jpg

     

    I would install one of those with the inlet facing down. It's harder to lose things inside if you do. I doubt your engine cares one way or the other

     

    Richard

     

    The second one.

     

    I was surprised...

    1) to find it on the engine room floor

    2) never to have noticed which way up it had been installed

    3) even more surprised that there is no "filter" material inside. It is simply a hollow box.

    4) The manufacturers/suppliers depict it intake nozzle up while the engineer suggested it fits intake nozzle down.

     

    A surprising experience all round.

     

    Thanks for all the replies so far.

  12. I am hoping this problem has one definitive answer and doesn't develop into a split decision like cassette/pumpout !

     

    The air filter on our Nanni/Kubota engine fell off so I pushed it back on with the "nozzle" facing down. The first marina we came to we asked if it was fitted properly and the engineer said yes - nozzle-down.

     

    Now I have googled-- nanni diesel engine air filter -- the first website to come up is A R Peachment Who in fact were the suppliers of our engine. peachment.co.uk/product/air-filter-nanni-diesel-n4-50-50hp/.

     

    Their picture displays the filter nozzle-up.

     

    Would be interested to hear which way the filter should be fitted, Thanks.
