Cheshire Cat

Ive just Serviced my Dads Stovax Cast Stove this week and its over 10 years old, showing no sign's of damage, i replaced all ropes/glass/re-blacked it and cemented the back joint. - as good as new and no signs of end of life. I never knew Cast Stoves did fail but many people on here know a lot more than me and i hold my hands up.

I voted B even though i dont have a friggin boat just yet but it would be great to get help for me and my dad to begin with as he is struggles with his knees and it will be a while before i am able to single hand the locks on my own confidently. yer why not !

Hospitals have a duty of care towards suicide prevention on their premises and take as much preventative measure as possible and so do Highways Agency on Motorway Suicide Hot Spots, it would be impossible to stop someone jumping off every building/structure as they will always find an alternative place to attempt an end of life. I am a suicide survivor and have jumped a few times, thankfully i am on the mend now. I dont think Railings at Marple Aquaduct will make any difference to suicide prevention whatsoever, it may help reduce the risk of people falling accidentially while taking risks on the non railing side. Lets not confuse idoits taking risks with people intent on self harm they are two different things. It would be a shame for the estetics of Marple Aquaduct to be spoilt and possibly not needed, i dont know really.

Dave Mayall maybe you should think before you tag people as being stupid, you dont know if this lad was trying to take his own life in which case that would make him ill and in need of help not stupid. the facts are not out and its still an ongoing investigation. Personally I could not give a damn about bloody railings.

I am amazed the lad survived falling from Marple Aquaduct. I fell just over 50 feet from a block of flats breaking my back and rupturing my liver but to survive 90 feet is unbelievabley lucky. I hope he makes it.

No way did you just do that Dave Clinton , it put a smile on my face and started my day off with a bang for that alone you get a greenie. Ps Good luck to the lady who's boat sunk, the fact that she did not set this crowfund up her self speaks volumes she must be very well liked by her freinds.
