My digital CO alarm shows previous peak levels. They indicate levels (not life threatening) when we haven't been there (and it's not batteries sulphating). It's probably fumes from other boats. I can't think of another source.

To further muddy the waters. I currently pay £260 a year for my offside mooring. No parking or facilities but secure and some land to play with. The C&RT cost on top of that is approx £460. So more money going to C&RT than the 9% from marinas charging a few thousand. I'm not complaining, just adding to the discussion.

They are like buses. Nothing then 2 come along at once. Referencing /s which I had not seen before the other day on another thread on here.

Don't use water straight off the boil. It needs to cool down a bit.

The Lune Aqueduct. Not very important?

Sorry. I missed that and will bear it in mind.

They do amazing garlic and herb smoked Lancashire cheese at a very reasonable price.

That also depends on your expectations and what you are prepared or able to put up with, or need to make life comfortable.

@Steve_A hasn't mentioned their budget just it's towards the lower end. If a figure was given people could offer a better idea of the possible options.

Exterior boat wash, products used?
Ianws replied to canals are us?'s topic in Boat Building & Maintenance
Sugar soap. -
I work for a charity serving community meals. We have to follow the strict guidelines. What people do personally is up to them but the guidelines are good to follow. Here are some basics on storage temperatures and the important danger zone where bacteria can grow exponentially.

When camping or on the boat I tend to use these. I wasn't keen on uht milk but these are okay. They also do oat milk sticks Lakeland Dairies UHT Semi Skimmed Milk Sticks - 10ml (120) https://amzn.eu/d/07EWPSSY

I don't live aboard and like to think of my boat as very posh camping. Basic equipment and only 12v suits me fine. I know this wouldn't work for lots of people. But for me simpler is better.

Marina investigations and planning?
Ianws replied to yorkshiredalesandy's topic in Moorings & Marinas
Isn't it a bit more nuanced than that. I thought council tax only applied to moorings with residential planning permission. If yhe mooring is for exclusive use by the moorer they are liable for the tax. If non exclusive ( the moorer moves moorings once or twice a year) the mooring operator is liable (but presumably adds it to mooring charges). I may have the wrong end of the stick but you do need to do proper research before making a choice. -
Offering to pay the CRT fee for your own length of mooring while this is being sorted out could be very complicated. The end of garden fee individual boaters pay to CRT is set at 50% of the local mooring going rate as assessed by CRT. The farmer paying CRT for multiple moorings is probably paying less than this per mooring but will have to pay the fee for all the moorings whether occupied or not. At least that's my understanding.

With the current cost off living many people won't want to contribute towards things they can already access free of charge. "Friends" schemes are usually doomed and cost more than they take in.
-
But whose money? CRT ain't got enough, canals aren't a government priority and fundraising costs more than it rakes in. Licence fee increases only go so far. Sorry for the doom and gloom.

If you like proper dark chocolate rather than the sugary milk "chocolate" a lot of it can be vegan. One example https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/products/green-blacks-organic-70-dark-chocolate-bar/065343-33115-33116

Overnight Mooring for the Etihad Stadium, Manchester.
Ianws replied to Sea Dog's topic in General Boating
I'm not sure about other concerts but the prices for tickets for The Eagles at the Coop arena would make a £25 mooring fee pretty insignificant, if there were any spaces. -
Depending on the CRT volunteers that might be a good or bad thing.
