Living Statues are tedious, talentless twats, aren’t they.
The first glimpse of Spring and I’ve already seen a “Living Statue.’ If you’ve never seen one (lucky you), they’re “artists” who dress up/paint themselves as something famous, stand still on a plinth and expect you to place money in a hat.
No, that’s it. That’s all they do. Sometimes it’s intriguing for a second or two while you work out just how they’re “floating” but it’s either a drab, dull answer or you feel the breath of a pickpocket on your neck.
I actually used to approach them and appear to be dropping in a nugget, but then freeze, mid action. I’d hold the pose and watch them squirm a bit before fucking off, chuckling.

Where are you now QS? We are heading upto Appley lock for a picnic on Saturday then a few weeks at Parbold / Burscough we're in the "layby" at Appley lock until early next week. It's the "duck race" on Sunday which we'll walk back to. Im heading up there Saturday afternoon with another couple of boats for a picnic and the like🍻🍸🍾 Think Derek the diesel on Ambush may be due past this weekend if you need filling.

A KNITTED ROYAL WEDDING … I SEE PRINCE HARRY, MEGHAN MARKLE … CAN YOU SPOT Mickey Mouse? Even if you don’t care about the upcoming Royal Wedding, you have to admit that this knitted display at Nunthorpe Railway station near Middlesbrough is so fun! Made by The Nunthorpe and Marton Knitters over five months.

No TV aerial on the boat.
No way the radio will be tuned to 5 live.
We won't be stopping at any pubs on the way so won't suffer it that way either.
Result!
And besides (it's worth the full passage this time)
Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing — absolutely nothing — half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats. Simply messing... about in boats — or with boats. In or out of ’em, it doesn't matter. Nothing seems really to matter, that's the charm of it. Whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at your destination or whether you reach somewhere else, or whether you never get anywhere at all, you're always busy, and you never do anything in particular; and when you've done it there's always something else to do, and you can do it if you like, but you'd much better not.
🚢👍🍻

On the left, Rog, the Candle-in-the-Wind-Candle-up-the-Derrier 'singer'. Has a smile on his face, must be thinking something naughty.
