Victor Vectis Posted July 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) Richard reckoned that with a grass or two more it would qualify as a Site of Special Scientific Interest. Plan bowled out by lack of watering, alas. Edited July 18, 2018 by Victor Vectis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roland elsdon Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 Can we have it back please? Took it out of the cabin to vaccum on the long pound while i was waiting for the batteries to give hoover starting permission. Just at that point the phone rang, i had won the lottery in nigeria and had to send my bank details , of course i dived into the cabin to get them, ( the boat knows its own way being 80 years old). however boat thought it saw an old friend on the towpath, and dived towards it , that proved to be a fishist with size anxiety, who claimed the boat had snapped his 25 foot carbon protruberance. whilst i was discussing his mothers relationship with his many putative fathers i noted the bright orange carpet had fallen overboard, so can we have it back. Leave it on the roof we are coming warwickshire way in a few days.Ta. orange shagpile 8 by 4 thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Bob Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 We've been at it most days in the last 4 months for at least a few hours each day and I've only had to go down the weed hatch once in that time and that was not necessary as the prop was fine. I was just thinking how free of rubbish the canals have been this year. We are however just on our way up past nuneaton.... so maybe our luck is about to run out. We could do with a new carpet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete of Ebor Posted July 19, 2018 Report Share Posted July 19, 2018 OK. This was late May on The Ryder's Green Flight. Doesn't look much yet because I hadn't yet managed to free the coat or the toaster off the barbed wire that was still round the prop... Admittedly the trolley did not come up through the weedhatch but was 'rescued' in the same pound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
