  2. Saw these at the Cheshire show recently. It was a hot Day and they seemed to be selling well. not sure if ok for cats though. http://www.dfordog.co.uk/thermlow-dog-cooling-vest.html

  5. There are no narrowboats on bude canal, it is only a short stretch, the only boat you will find are paddle boats, so that is ruled out
  6. A G clamp would work fine to move the boat. I do have some stud extractors that do not need a pilot hole, they drill in anti clockwise and grip the stud, work ok if stud not too tight. I could drop them off if you need them. If you need a clamp I have several sizes that would fit. Do know someone who was in same situaton and used a clamp left it on for over a year with no problems .
  7. I had a cheaper one set on fire last month luckily I noticed it very quickly.
  8. i use these rollers toolstation decoroy 4" roller sleeves, they do not fall to pieces with bitumen. The 4inch roller code is 81477 a little more expensive but you will find they do not fall to bits . they are made for marine and solvents
  9. we had a similar problem with our dog, it was only if another dog came near the cruiser deck . I found it was because we had his food bowls on the deck and he did not want another dog near them. Took them away and it was back to normal.
  10. Just thought I would like to share with you the fact that we have passed the 1,000 visitor mark for our floating art gallery. We now support over 30 artists from across the country who are on the Autistic spectrum. If you are passing Our boat Jenny may on the Bridgewater canal usually around Sale or Lymm call in for a look. Happy days
  11. I had a similar set up on my first boat. when I had the problem of low water flow I checked the weed filter and it looked clear so I removed the impeller and it was ok. The cause was a bag was partially blocking the inlet at bottom of boat. I would check weed filter if that is clear leave filter out and open the sea cock to make sure you have a good flow(open it slowley and you can close it in plenty of time before boat would sink). If you have a good flow go to impeller. If you do not have a good flow I used to rod out from filter to bottom of boat with a bottle cleaning brush. You have to be quick and ready to close off the tap when the blockage clears.
  12. you should take up this offer, you will regret it if you dont especially as they will probably catch you up anyway. some of the locks on the nine are a bugger
  13. I am working saturday morning , depending where you get to in the afternoon may be able to help on some of the ashton
  14. These are not great locks to be doing by yourself on a first voyage. When you find out when you are moving it may be worth seeing if anyone is around to lend a hand or maybe going up with another boat
  15. For that much money we could run our art gallery for a lot more than 3 years. It costs us around 3 grand a year but then we dont pay any wages. No wonder I am always skint. @artismafloat
