Did you ever pursue the claim against C&RT that you were thinking about after you ran A41/Medlock up onto those submerged blocks of concrete near Heck Bridge on the Aire & Calder on 27 September 2017, and damaged and holed the hull, . . or did you eventually see sense and think better of it ? The submerged blocks of concrete were in fact old 1 x ton craneboat ballast weights that had been placed up against a length of Larssen bank piling, that was slipping/subsiding into the canal, as a temporary measure to slow down and stabilize the piling subsidence. The concrete blocks were clearly marked with yellow posts driven into the canal bed, and the canal is very wide at that point. I presume that the difficulties you were having with the boat you were towing was what caused A41/Medlock to be passing much too close to the marked obstructions. If you had been in the middle, in the deep main navigable channel, . . instead of crawling along much too close to the bank, . . then you wouldn't have run up onto those concrete blocks. Trying it on with a claim against the navigation authority for further damage to a boat with already thin and leaking bottom plating, and especially in circumstances of having invalidated your insurance cover at the time of the incident, by taking on a paid towing job contrary to the terms of your policy, would have been very foolish indeed. Did the fact that you were towing another largish boat have anything to do with you crawling along too close to the southerly bank, instead of keeping to the deep water towards the middle, . . or was the whole incident simply down to general stupidity, boating incompetence, or failing to notice the line of yellow danger markers sticking up several feet out of the water ? ________________________________________________________________________ Why are you so reluctant to provide an honest and sensible reply to the above ? Why are you so reluctant to provide a postal address for service of documents ? What are you so anxious to hide or avoid ?

Why are you so reluctant to provide a postal address for service of documents ? Possibly because it is not good practice to provide a thief and fraudster with a home address?

If you don't provide a postal address for the service of documents, other ways of serving them are available. Crack on then. Alternative ways of serving documents and papers include service by post to an employer's address, or service in person at work.

Maybe you could serve it to a member of the Mr Stabby security detail. Afaik the area is crawling with contract risk management personnel. Whether this would be deemed served one would have to ask Prince Andrew.

Funnily enough, I could have sworn that TonyDunkley posted that the imaginary no-win, no-fee libel lawyer said he had no chance... Ah, while you're here, I haven't heard anything from the no-win, no-fee libel lawyer yet. Have you any idea when I'm likely to receive his letter as I'm off cruising next month and it will be far easier for all concerned if I can deal with it before I set off? It's good news for you, because you won't be hearing anything from them. They've looked through your postings and come to the conclusion that no right thinking person is going to take anything you write seriously enough for it to do any significant harm to anybody's reputation, standing, or business. Apparently, Courts will only order substantial defamation damages awards against those who publish credible libel, and themselves possess reasonable levels of credibility.

There's a 12 month time limit on bringing an action for libel/defamation. To save you the trouble of having to take you shoes and socks off to work it out, . . that's 17 September 2022 in respect of your most recently published statements. Why would I want to "crack on" whilst you continue to provide me with so much more libellous material than you've already published ?

Yes, but in February 2019 the imaginary no-win, no-fee libel lawyer told you that I had insufficient credibility to have libelled you, whereas the current imaginary no-win, no fee libel lawyer is telling you that I do. Obviously these imaginary no-win, no fee libel lawyers cannot both be right, so which imaginary no-win, no-fee libel lawyer is right?

I keep trying to write something..I have deleted so many words as I struggle to understand the way folk are behaving. then I think .."Whats the point?" this thread will just go round n round with insults traded and unpleasantness Its very uncomfortable this degree of nastiness .. but all are free to post thoughts... I have the option not to read or follow these threads..I guess really I should just avoid. I honestly think TD is not a well man, the stress of losing his boat may be in part the reason he's against just about everyone. I know that does not excuse the virulent nature of his posts. With you on this Patty. Stinks of bullying and plain nastiness. Wouldn’t happen in real life, keyboard warrior stuff at its worst. Tony is obviously struggling, give the man a break for f..... sake!!!! Your sentiments and concerns are admirable, as are Patty's, . . but I do object to having people voicing fanciful opinions as to to how I'm 'coping' with the 'stress' they quite wrongly imagine I'm under, . . or my supposed 'state of mind' in general. To the present day, and throughout most of the rest of my working life since the late 1960's, I've happily existed, and continue to do so, in a state of open and very active hostilities with all but a very few of the upper echelons of management of the British Waterways Board, . . the even more corrupt and useless successors to the BWB -- the C&RT, . . and the more dishonest, stupid, blinkered, irritating, bigoted or arrogant members of the human race that I have the misfortune to come in contact with -- of which the participating membership of Thunderboat comprises quite a number. If anyone feels that they must speculate as to my general wellbeing, or to question my state of mind, it would be very much appreciated if that speculation or questioning was founded on, or prompted by, something rather more substantial than the vacuous ill-informed utterances of a few ill-intentioned members trolling an internet boating forum, . . such as the garbage with which this post will no doubt be greeted.

Tony.
I don't know if you read your own posts but there has been an enormous amount of repetition.
This is not "normal" and will lead people to speculate.
It will also degrade your credibility in general when or if it comes to any legal action about anything.
Constant and verbatim repetition is very boring and really gives a bad impression.
I suspect CRT have filed you as a general nuisance. While you do have genuine grievances and probably a legal claim against them your behaviour on here, which is a publicly accessible internet forum, does you no favours.
Perhaps after all it is a hobby. The internet is a strange place.

He's obviously also forgotten that we went through the whole "imaginary libel action" thing just a couple of years ago, and when forced to shit or get off the pot, chose to get off the pot. Forgetfulness, along with repetition is a classic symptom of dementia.

Perhaps after all it is a hobby. The internet is a strange place. Repetition of posts -- in particular, carefully worded and lengthy ones -- becomes essential if and whenever such posts are buried under a torrent of mindless drivel to the extent that, without repetition, they may well be missed completely by those at whom they are primarily targeted. I can tell you that your assumption as to what C&RT have me filed under couldn't be more wrong. Silence on any given matter can be, and frequently is, mistakenly taken as being indicative of some sort of negative outcome.
