  1. I thought they stuck you 'ed first down the coal'ole, and then measured the inches of leg showing. No leg showing, better fill up with nutty slack, sorry best steam coal. I am sure I have seen a picture of a rather grimey Daniel's 'ed sticking out of the coal'ole, brandishing the remaining piece of coal. By the way, do they do pink coal? Maybe that one has been cracked before.

  3. No it isn't. How long is 37cm? I cannot visualise it.

  12. Sums up my feelings. If (I cannot afford it) I was having a boat built, I would be looking for functionality, comfort, convenience (both as a base to live on and to cruise) and safety. These are in no particular order, except safety. What the boat looks like would be less important however it would be essential that the boat could navigate both the L&L and the Llangollen. Good design often falls out of these four. I would not be asking for a stern that looks traditional or a Josher bow because it is traditional, but if the boat that resulted from my design criteria looked traditional, well so be it. Despite his remarks, Garry's company would be on my list of possible builders. It looks like they build b***dy good boats
  13. I am not sure I understand this, is the problem the width or the 'style' of boat. In this country I am not sure that it is worth having an inland waterways boat, unless it is capable of travelling through the majority of the canals, and certainly the rings. Being confined to the L&L (wonderful waterway that it is) is a little stultifing.
  14. Was not Maffi's boat a 'ditch-crawler' completed last October? I may be wrong
