  3. I love Btcc as well. A few beers, in front of the tv with the water gently moving the boat. Heaven. Lol

  9. As long as I can watch f1 at the weekends I'm happy lol.
  10. Just wondered which is best. The boat I'm buying already has one of the funky looking aerials you see on a caravan on it. Would it be worth replacing it with a dish?
  11. Yeah I can't wait to get on her. So peaceful. You never know we could be neighbors lol.
  12. Hi Phil how long have you been in sawley? Still negotiating with the mooring office at sawley at mo. They wanted £3015 pa for residential mooring. And that's with a 10% discount lol. Don't mind paying £280 a month. See what they say. Cause I like the environment there.
  13. Ok looks simple. So do you tie that not to the boat or the mooring post. I'm going to be in a marina most of the time lol so don't think I'll need an anchor there lol
  14. What's a clove hitch lol.
  15. It's at sawley on the river Trent. Not confirmed yet. So yeah its a tidal river. The pontoons are fixed. They have rings that raise with the water level. Which they say you should moor to. Especially since sawley as a habit of flooding. As for tying tight. I would like to be able to untie it lol.
  16. And I mean tying up the boat lol. So I don't end up floating down the river. Or come home after work to find the boat missing lol.
