The rain combined with the melting snow and sleet created huge ammounts of standing water and mild flooding on the roads between our villages. I honestly cant recall them being as bad for years.

Up-Side-Down Posted January 9, 2021 Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 Ice on the Union Canal, west of Edinburgh, at least 2" thick with minus 7 deg last night. No chance of moving to the wharf to meet the diesel tanker last Thursday so Plan B and 1000 litres went into an IBC on a trailer for when the canal thaws!

Various issues are already showing up with the 1st Generation biodiesel now added to mineral diesel, apart from the dreaded bug. Just used 200 litres Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) – 2nd Generation biofuel – in my Dickinson Adriatic with no issues and currently fellow boaters are trialing it in a Mikuni, Eberspacher and a Webasto. It's fine in a Refleks. 3 minutes ago, Alan de Enfield said: Maybe HG Wells could assist ? We need a clever man like him ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
