  1. We've only had one problem with a volockie where he wound the paddles like a whirling Dervish without any eye contact with me on the back of the boat.P had a gentle word(1st lock of 3) & suggested that he waited til' the person on the back of the boat was happy before paddles were wound.
  2. Bats ? Owls ? Both with visual problems so clunking into things ??
  3. We've been there when that happened.Verrrrry quiet the next day...
  4. I'm afraid we're out cruising ourselves.
  5. Tony & Geezer were both there for the bridge ceremony.
  6. I've got a second hand blue book which I got from a canal weekend/ event.Well worth tracking down.
  7. But would folk really pay that for a 42 year old Springer ???
  8. £20,000 grand for a boat that old sounds like(only)a London price to me.No way would that be an asking price elsewhere ! If it was elsewhere...how much ?
  9. What Matty doesn't say/didn't know was that the boat behind us had left while we were in the pub !
  10. We're doing the link on the 16th,already excited.*Note to self-you need to get out more ...
  11. Ooh,I don't know.I reckon we could start a movement to follow through on that idea ..?
  12. We met the infamous Sonny when we moored by the King's Ransom in Sale.We asked if it was 24 or 48 hours there as we couldn't see a sign.He said it was 48 hrs,gave us his card & said to ring him if we had any problems...?
  13. We had a few drinks there & thought that the food looked good.Promised ourselves a meal there on the way back.
  14. I tend to use Accuweather...but it's not always accurate !?
  15. We're now lazing around by the (closed)Dover Lock Inn.?
  16. We used the old Claymore base to fill up with water.?
  17. It is soooool sad as it could be sooooo good !
  18. These would be the boats we saw come through Lymm yesterday.All smiles & chatty !
  19. Can't stand Marmite but I love Twiglets...?
  20. We've just left Middlewich & I remember seeing your boat(name) the other day.?
  21. We'll be there soon & more interested where water points & pump outs are.We were there 5 years ago & have a sneaking idea that things have changed.
