  1. Great suggestion about the vlog... I'll look it up. Thanks again for giving so much useful advice! Hope life is good on the Caley Canal.
  2. Ok, that's fine --- Definitely me that was the bear of little brain! - thanks for helping me out
  3. Hi Alan. Absolutely, that's a great thought --- I am really interested both in the experience of continuous cruising and also the ways in which people respond to the mooring regulations. I have only just begun my research, but it does seem that there are a real range of legal, governance-related, and infrastructural challenges for boaters, all of which I'm really keen to learn more about. Sorry for accidentally creating two threads... Thanks again to both you and @Tumshie!
  4. Brilliant, thanks again @Tumshie!
  5. Hi @Tumshie! Thank you so much for your suggestions. I have only just begun my research, so I have not yet contacted anyone via blogs... but it is a great idea, and something I will definitely do - thank you! That's really useful to know. I have also joined a few Facebook groups, and am making slow progress. Thanks also for the advice on posts... I'm guessing from your location 'North of... everywhere' that you don't live in London?
  6. Hi everyone! I’m a postgraduate student from Oxford University, and I’m doing research on the experiences of people living afloat in London. I am particularly interested in questions of infrastructure - both at the broader scale of to what extent the CRT is succeeding in providing sufficient facilities and moorings for boaters, but also how boaters maintain their homes day-to-day with regards to water supply, disposing of toilet waste, heating boats, etc. in ways which are unique to life afloat. I hope that my thesis will generate insight and relevant recommendations for policy. If you would be interested to share your experiences of boating, or even to air any grievances you have about boating facilities, please drop me a message. I would love to chat with you about it. Thank you, Jacinta
  7. Hi everyone! I’m a postgraduate student from Oxford University, and I’m doing research on the experiences of people living afloat in London. If any of you would be happy to do so, I would love to be able to talk with you about your experiences and opinions. I am particularly interested in questions of infrastructure and governance in light of increasing pressure on moorings and facilities, as well as opinions about governance by the CRT and Environment Agency. I hope that my thesis will generate insight and relevant recommendations for policy. If you would be interested to share your experiences, or to air any grievances you have about boating facilities (anything from toilet waste facilities to ways of keeping your boat cooler in this weather…), please do send me a message here to find out more! Thank you, Jacinta
