  5. I came up Tinsley Tinsley flight the other day my ropes were frozen as well, that's life, boating in winter can be difficult at times, I dropped mine in the canal instant defrost

  9. What a twat! For mooring there, beyond belief, instead of grassing him up they should have moored him somewhere else I would
  10. True and they are centrally mounted right next to the 350kg Rayburn
  11. Yes many years of the heat store working well, it heats via the Rayburn, the generator and the wood burner with backboiler. The calorifier is₩ sited above it heated by gravity. The heat store was a cheap purchase from ebay, it's a Calorex with multiple entry points 120 litres?
  12. I would like a hookup as solar is in short supply and running the generator currently is a bit load
  13. One of the boats is leaving on Saturday morning, so I will be ok I should think, Jayne is a juror in court for 2 weeks so that's why I have travelled up, the timing for the tram is rubbish it would be a 12 hour day for her
  14. You are in London the most expensive moorings in the UK. Also you have more than one boat and one mooring, plus you aren't paying for one mooring
  15. Not even there moored at top pond next to showers and toilets , not down until Saturday. I wonder if the guy that's run out of diesel is paying
  16. Put it up 2 thirds and the canals would be empty and derelict in a couple of years
  17. You are right, I came up Tinsley flight today it was a nightmare, 5 people to open Rotherham lock to start, Smith and i couldn't shift a gate so 3 passersby helped one in high heels! Then the weir had a huge mud bank blocking it which means you have to scratch your boat by going through trees! Most locks only have one paddle working both ends, this will eventually cause people to shun this journey. I then learned that CRT senior management and Trustees are having a series of jollys around the country at our expense! So we know why they need more money it's to fund Jollys and the extra senior management posts and their cars!!!

  23. I ain't saying it's not stupid, just ingenious New concrete locks perfik for the job, remember they are very large and not suited for wooden gates, maybe a complete go through of all locks to this size to future proof the canals for real freight moving boats and moving water around would be best
