Don't you think that this sort of behaviour is more prevalent in a Recession

Wyvern Shipping I assume ?

Its not an attempt at Social Bracketing,its merely people who can no longer afford the mooring fees in the Local Marina. They aren't moving boats around the country at weekends,indeed some see the live aboard boater as an unpaid watchman, which wouldn't be so bad if you were rewarded by a bottle for your troubles but that is never the case.I only point it out not to make capital but merely to endorse that "in days gone by" things were different.I don't question the legitimacy of their actions,

Sorry Betty as I am local I do know,they are all ex MK Marina and I have spoken with each of the owners over the 11 days I have been here. A mixture of excessive charges by MK Marina who in the main are populated by people on Housing Benefit apparently,or is it the Squeezed Middle Classes just looking to save money ?

Your certainly not the best at guessing,anyway will you be attending the NBTA events in Dorset or Birmingham next week ?

That bit refers to the dumped boats Betty,I am sat alone with three of them as I write.

Whatever gave you that idea ?

I didn't actually say that Betty,but never mind.
