tree monkey

You boil people?

And me, Star Coaster washed my mug once.....

But a good tea mug need maturing

The sort left on the floor at the end of a boot sale, rusty, knackered and not even worth the scrap value

I work with wood and often have wind, does that make me an instrument?

Not sure but I am sure a PM to either Ally or Matty40 could help

It might be worth finding someone you trust and knows boats in the UK and use them as a proxy to see the boats in the flesh. Not ideal but I would suggest much better than buying unseen. There may be someone on the forum who could offer this as a paid for service

Start at a shrubbery and work your way up

I could help you identify a larch

Could they carry some elderberries as well do you think?

European swallows, whats wrong with proper British swallows I ask?

Well a bit towards the roof

Well being the genuinely lovely monkey that I am, I have donated my useless, sorry err very useful ecofan to BSP because her need is greater than mine. I can now unfortunately report that despite its obvious benefits to keeping me snug and warm I have actually noticed bugger all difference but I am keeping an emergency jumper nearby just in case. Seriously I am curious to see if it helps on her boat, as mine has a dogleg corridor whilst BSPs boat has a full length straight corridor. I may report back if I remember

Its looking to be a good one, anyone else up for a good night with good people good beer? Oh and a super secret sexy pheromone wipes that the pub will supply

a comment only are you?

But are you not moaning about nick moaning, this could become endless, someone could moan about you moaning about nick moaning about and so on

Slightly! First time out on my boat I was absolutely cacking it, mind you it was my first time on a narrowboat or in fact any boat apart from the Holyhead Dublin ferry. Enjoy it

A massive EE contract, really?

As its a posh place remember your string vest

Being a posh place I suppose they don't approve of sitting on the front deck in just your pants either, pah bludy posh nonsense

I bought one but obviously I am dead fick cause it didn't make any difference and now sits by the side of the stove gathering dust

Yes, I think everyone else was asleep and yup Tawny is lovely to steer, apart from that cruiser stern thing Well it seems we are well matched

I agree with this, the other halfs boat is 62 and very relaxed to steer, on the other hand my 48ft is very very keen to have a closer look at the offside veg

There was sealand RAF base not all that far away, I think used as a training base during the war and an emergency airfield.
