  1. There more intelligent info here - imho the bristol post got it a bit wrong
  2. you mean CART actually listened to them for a change and dropped a scheme their manegement was so keen to bring in?
  3. Next time we are down that way we will moor there be polite to the house holder if meet him and keep running genny or engine to minimum, have music on very quiet, etc. and report any antisocial behaviour by householder to CART.
  4. wasn't that film set where Tom Rolt met Sonia Smith?
  5. one of the stupider decisions made recently. Its in the middle of nowhere (relatively) with nothing in the way of amenities nearby.
  6. last time we did the Marple flight the boat got hung up on protruding brickwork in two locks going downhill - cant remember which ones but others had same problem going both up and down. Huddersfield narrow, difficult to get to edge at the lock landings because of silt and no dredging (at the time, may have changed now) so we landed at the tail/ head instead. Grounded in the little tunnel just west of Hudd but that's been opened out so it may be deeper now. Pennine crossings well worth it, go for it.
  7. this will seriously annoy trail boat owners, looks like they are now stopping you from keeping your boat out of the water when not being used. that's several thousand customers they've just turned their back on. Astonishing.
  8. we had been on the waiting list for some time in good faith,we were abiding by the rules as they were at the time and not trying to change them to siut ourselves. Then system was changed by Sally Ash wothout any warning or consultation. Just bumped off the lists without a by your leave. Astonishing.

  10. because people were bumped off the waiting lists when they'd been waiting for ages in good faith in 2007 who coulndt aford the auction price but could afford and plan for a fixed price
  11. lkie I just said in another thread, the mooring auctions are a disgrace.
  12. most of this thread seems very sycophantic. We found Sally Ash arrogant, ignorant, unsympathetic and tactless when in 2007 we ttried to keep our place near the top of awaiting list for a mooring when the autcions started suddenly. We had to take a marina mooringmuch further away instead in the end which was very inconvenient and mainly because of that our boat is now on longterm loan to friends. It was (and still is) a disgrace. I am glad she has decided to go, not before time. We won't miss her.
  13. There's a litter pick on the K and A this Saturday, meet Devises Wharf 10.30 to go towards Horton, think the idea is to finish at the Bridge Inn...
