Plenty of rumours about, some of them I heard were he'd: *sheared off two rivets *Ripped a foot long gouge in the hull *sunk *was last seen sinking rapidly, despite 1/6/11 bilge pumps I think he'd only got a little hole around the water line, cos it was welded with the boat still in the water apparently

Thats the one! Bouncey bouncey, oh such a good time...

I like the Mighty Boosh. I was a bit pissed off when one of their crimps got in my head and I lost a possible job cos i was bobbing around to it when no one else could hear it

Title says it all. A contact number would be useful, shes wanted for a Project. Having said that; if we cant get Meteor, any butty will do. Any ideas?

Linnet went back in this time with a miniture of whiskey over the bow, Having said that, when Humphrey was launched, he didnt go in with the bottle of champange. He only moved when mum cracked a bottle of stout over him that he bobbed into the water Linnets been renamed several times through her life with (touch wood) no ill effects. Sea-going tradition states that the ship has to be properly christened for the name changing bad luck to apply and then if you re-christen the ship in her new name theres no problem, or if your to cheap to go for the full out christening; providing the original ships bell is kept, there wont be any problems. Thats sad, I shouldn't know that.... *sighs*

Im no good at posting photos, but this is similar to what I have.

I've never lived in house, and the cold snap has cemented my decision never, ever to do so. Im not leaving my boats for nothing!

Linnet has a Premier. Its a good little stove, I use it for cooking etc.

its normal. coal does burn hotter than wood, but it needs a really good run up. stove shape makes a difference - tall and narrow firebox, go for hard coal (anthracite) - small, low and wide, go for bituminous coal (soft types) clinkers on the fire itself will make it burn lower, coal produces around 8 times more ash than wood which make it seem to burn hotter. the type of coal is the final thing. anthracite needs a good air flow just to keep going, so when loading more coal on its advisable to open the draft until the new coal has caught on.

I fell through it. slipped off the towpath and straight through the ice. The ice shredded the left leg on my last pair of jeans! One of my friends was walking on it though. I dont think he meant too, he'd had a bit to much to drink..

that magazine 'narrowboat' comes up with a lot of pictures
