I would suggest in all probability once the water had been drained out, it is the result of the bed drying out during the hot summer and will take a period of resealing. -

I would add that not all my oil changes, I am the second owner. Having said that they do get a tad easier?

Unless of course your face fits

13,500 hours on my 2005 Isuzu 42 engine and it still runs as sweet as a nut, oil & filter changed every 250 hours or so, fuel filters whenever.

In my early days of drilling and cutting we used a home brew concoction nicknamed Mystic, basically a mix of oil an water in the right proportions,also tallow for thread cutting. A vote from me also for Starret, to my mind simply the best. I still have a selection of rather old Starret hole saws, even though they have been extensively used as good as the day they were purchased.

Cannot agree with you on that. The fact it is already under the Winter stoppage listing indicates that the canal is closed. It is just an addendum that now the towpath is closed. Winter stoppages are never issued just for towpath closures. Trying to nitpick makes you look stupid.

Must admit I was also disappointed with it. I thought I had nodded off and missed a bit, they could have easily made two episodes of the trip and shown a little more of the Bridgewater, along with perhaps some of the Shroppie to Chester and beyond. I'm sure it would have been interesting to boaters and non boaters.

Must admit I have been along there many times over the past two years and never seen him. Note to self: Must try harder to encourage him?

From the lack of news about Sunny these days I wonder whether he is now in shackles ?

Looks like it may be Aytoun Street bridge to me. Bit of a concern when the trams run on it.
-
Sounds a reasonable stoppage to protect boaters and walkers. Just a shame the third party owners (city council) are dragging their heels

Never had a problem with waxing in the boat which tends to get a bit of a run, winter stoppages excepted also no problem with an aging Mondeo Turbo
-
Must admit in the years I have been cruising I have rarely had to use spring lines and certainly have not been unduly disrupted by passing boats. I think some boaters see a problem where none exists except in the mind.

I noticed on Facebook today that Greyhound Gap (Rescue Centre) have announced they are quite willing to accept boaters.

Our Rottie will quite happily disembowel a squeaky toy within hours and then play with the remains for many months?
-
The fuel or the boat? ?

Strange comment when CRT did not come into existence until 2012
-
Must admit that we are on our 2nd Rottie and both have been comfortable with the boat and of course the different variety of sniffing points around the system.
-
Dogs Trust, Manchester do not seem to have a problem. Liveaboard friends of mine have a dog from there within the last 12 months. They did an inspection of the boat and were quite satisfied with the 2000 mile garden.

Should the 12v input not be stabilised ? which the components in your defunct power supply would do.
