    We snap off bits of willow we cruise under, although i'm now banned from it as i grabbed a bit on the Ashby and an entire branch dropped on me

    Never had a problem ourselves pumping out from the roof when we had a dump-thru on the shareboat, easy to get to from either side and no crouching down if it's a particularly high dock. That said, one of the other shareholders did spill a load of blue on the roof when attempting to put some down the filler which left an immovable stain on the paintwork (which was strenuously denied), so there is that. We always put it down the pan itself.

    Straight from the horses mouth as it were… Good morning, I have spoken to my colleague and they have advised that the star means a site of historical knowledge, and this site in particular was where the battle of Bosworth took place. Hope this helps with your enquiry. Kindest regards

    Most would fear to tread in that direction, you just piled right in, you should get a gripper of yourself and get back to the underlaying issue of this thread

    Is your fire missing the baffle/throat plate above the grate? this would allow everything to shoot straight up the flue.

    I think i'd flog it on, winning it is one thing, it's running and upkeep is another

    That boat has been there a while, CRT zip-tied a notice to it last year, it's still there. With the height out of the water at the back, i'm not even sure it has an engine.

    As it's just dropped in my inbox, there's 10% off at Wetsuit Outlet with the code: SUN10 might be useful if you're looking for a life jacket or re-arming kit??

    I've forgotten to get pics the last two times we've gone by, saved me a job At least someone's working on it, on one pass we've seen one lad filling a skip and the other time it looked like building inspectors were on site. Half expected it to be one of those retrospective planning jobs where they were supposed to rebuild a bungaloid but it had oddly gained a floor and spread out somewhat, shortly followed by demolition again. I'm such a cynic.

    Yes, i overlooked the obvious cause! A roving band of teenage delinquents with bucket & spade, dismayed at the lack of sand to build castles on their break from education, decided to bail out the canal and build a scale model of the channel tunnel No doubt to the untrained eye this would look like a breach at first glance.

    On this day in 2019, a Black Prince boat beached in Croxton Flash. Took the CRT boat the best part of an hour to pull them free.

    There was a boat on the moorings at Rugby with a fat padlock securing the back doors, the family were all in the saloon having their tea 🤷‍♂️
