By the way, ianali may be pleased that I listened to / remembered what he had to say about Brexit, and I made an observation. He said that Brexit is discussed on Internet forums (as on TB) but out in real life boaters don't mention it at all. This has turned out to be true during our Summer trip.
I've only seen Brexit mentioned in the 'newspapers' and on Radio 4 (Radio 4 is vomit-inducing mediocrity and brainwashing for the 'middle classes') and on TB and Another Site I look at.
It's time for the BBC to be got rid of. Tax-funded Mafia of propaganda. Used to be good but now controlled by the EU.

Meanwhile ... hope all's well with ianaliRog Thanks for asking Roger. Ali’s mums doing pretty well thanks and we are back cruising. Loving the L&L and Yorkshire’s so good I can’t believe I’ve not spent far more time here over the years. This will be corrected over the coming months and years. Given up posting here since it went nasty. Didn’t appreciate being called a liar and having my integrity questioned. As I said at the time I wouldn’t sit in a pub and take it, so why bother here. Will keep an eye out for the lovely people from here, stay safe and enjoy our lovely waterways.

We met 'ianali' and thought he and his wife were both very nice. For the record. One person on here who hasn't suggested my "brains are up my arse", even though we have differing opinions on 'Brexit'. A real gentleman.

I've taken the view that it would be a mistake to let the arseholes win, so will just be more selective in responses. Please hang around ... there's some good 'uns here ianali ... and Mr Stabby of course Rog

Just my opinion...
Give people more 'benefit of the doubt' when online. You don't see them so it can be very easy to misjudge/miss-interpretate their comments.
there's no mistaking some of the things you or foxy have said.

I took a leaf out of @gazza 's book and moved out for a bit ... distance helped me to calm down I will not use the ignore facility ... just goes against the grain ... but believe me I will be ignoring some when they're peddling their bigotry. This is a great forum ... we need to protect it. Hope newbies can quickly see who's who and that most of us are just boaters with or without boats at present. Hope we'll still be chewing the fat in another four years. Rog

It would be a shame to let the trashy comments drive away the decent people on here. I do not have any on ignore but i rarely bother to read certain folks offerings. There are some really nice individuals posting which is why I continue, Now and again I step back if the bile gets too much and is through too many threads to ignore

I found this forum last week after putting canal forum into google and saw so many postss that made me laugh out loud, however after introducing myself I’ve had nothing but abuse for no reason from a certain poster. Its only been a PM from a forum member explaining the like of that certain posters trying to insert their authority. I was going to stop being part of this forum last week, a day after joining, after being abuses as I was. A certain poster on here ( whos now on ignore after I got a pm from a friendly poster telling me how) need to realise this forum will die if they continue with their attitudes I'm glad you are staying around..all forums need new blood to keep them vibrant.. Keep posting...
