Don’t moor near my canalside house

Does the evidence that the buildings were constructed long after the canal and kin the knowledge that boats moor there have any bearing on the fairness argument?

Have you tried driving a herd of cows down a motorway lately , they were there before the motorway . Times change. Before the houses were there probably people didnt moor and run engines for hours to charge their batteries to keep the fridge, TV sat decoder working

I think you will find the average farmer gets treated rather better than boaters in this situation.

 

Accommodation bridges, access roads, even new barns.  Boaters seem to get a notice on the wall saying effectively "Go away and multiply".

I think you will find that where a farmer wants a farm bridge it reduces their compensation for their land used for the motorway.

We've been moored in Birmingham when a canal side apartment has had a party on their balcony until about 3am but I didn't feel the need to go out and tell them to turn the noise down, just started our engine at 8am for some hot water ?

 

Yes, that'll have shown all the people in the other apartments just how good people can be.
