Thanks Dave.

I have a pair of Selwyn's bronze windlasses (with the arrows) which I bought new for around £8.50 for the last one which would have been in the very early 1980s. I know that there have been lots of threads around the cost etc of windlasses going back years but after seeing one of Selwyn's windlasses hanging up in a shop and was told it was from the 1950s whereas I thought they were more likely from the late '70s. My question is when are they from? Also when were the Neals made and for that matter the Cookes?

Mr Lewis, What was the issue with the Fulbourne? Too long or/and over 7' wide?

The South, well south of t' North. Canals north of the T&M, if that helps.

How far North can I get with a 72' boat? What canals can I not boat? Thank you in advance. M xx

I did and didn't hence here, result. Thank you. My wife had a go too and she didn't find it either. Not often that Google San lets me down.

Does any one know what Thetford's telephone is?

or this version from around 1960/61.

They did number 3.

Cheers for that, I always forget about the Nicholsons. I've only ever used the BWB guides and only just started using the Pearson guides. But I have no idea where in Hertford the pictures are from.

Are there any, modern, guides to the Lee and Stort. The only guide I have is from 1965 and my memory is from boating there in the mid 70s - boat was based there by the ice cream "factory". I would like to boat to the end of the canal in Hartford by the pub if that is still possible. Cheers in advance, Muddy

Indeed.

Or just errors.

Or a Harvey trap as I was told these "errors" are called and are there to deter or detect copying.
