  15. It's a common assumption Tony but I'm 29 and have been using the internet since I was 7 years old. I too remember the days when forums (and the internet in general) were much more civilised and wish it was still like that. It used to feel like much more of a community. I don't think age has as much to do with it as experience and speed of adoption. I see just as many older people who are new to the internet get wrapped up in pointless bickering because they don't understand the etiquette. I think like a lot of things, once it starts to get mass appeal any sense of community standards go out the window and it becomes a free for all. P.S. I am almost 30 so I'm not sure if I qualify as a younger person anymore ?
  16. Bluepoint marine is the only real "boatyard" in the city itself and they have hardstanding available. They will no doubt be at the pricier end but the facilities and expertise there are very good. It's accessible from the network via the Liverpool link - their lift is situated in Brunswick Dock. Scarisbrick marina is probably the next closest. (Narrowboat slipway and hardstanding) Although a bit further south Hesford Marine on the Bridgewater is a dedicated DIY yard, set up for longer-term hardstanding users. This might be of interest particularly if you're looking to be out of the water for several months or more. It's worth saying that I've never known of any boatyard on the canal system that would let you use their machining/woodworking facilities. Generally the arrangement is you provide all your own tools and if you're lucky they might let you use the power supply. A number of deaths and accidents in recent years in DIY boatyards has really clamped down on what they are willing/insured to provide.
