As an occasional observer and recent boozer in the above bar, I have noticed that no-one has been there since mid-April. What has happened? Have they run out of cider? Has there been a change of Landlord?
Those here ,who also went there (John, Phil, Peter (Oh God* who have I forgotten), can you shed any light on this sadness? It was a great bar with no arguments and a long-running 727-page fantasy that worked well!
What's going on?
(I simply can't post on CWDF until I'm off the norty step. It irks me to know that L feckin C has to read all of my posts before they're allowed!)
*Just a saying, I know there is no God!

The unStable Bar goes quiet sometimes, regulars get involved with other things, as for me, I've had to service my tandem trike and launder mt flappy shorts (due to a toilet mishap, forgot to drop them when taking a dump) never fear because I have a notion that the regulars may be found to be cruising in a new punt...... a Thunder punt no less, so keep an eye out for it over the next few days Phil

I think they're happy to be rid of us. They just want a family forum, although I can't believe there are many kids or wives reading it. I occasionally lurk there but there is nothing interesting going on, and most people all agree with each other. Where's the fun in that!

Greetings from Sowerby Bridge fellow Thunderboaters! How nice to get into our cosy boat and remember there's a bottle of Imperial single malt waiting! Pint in The Navigation and off to the fish&chips shop. Up early tomorrow for a day of work, and perhaps a run to Halifax and back.

Nova Scotia? Is there a Sowerby Bridge there? Fucking Canadians, steal names and have no sense if humour. Oh, Halifax you mean. I'm sure the original one is nicer than the fake Canadian version.
Home tomorrow Peter. Welcome to visit Finland! Manchester to Amsterdam to Helsinki, then 530km drive through the night.
21 litres of water in engine room, I really don't know from where. Clean, so rainwater. A drain was blocked, so maybe that.
Sucked 10 litres diesel from bottom of tank - looks 100% clean.
Breakfast in Wetherspoons - can life get any finer?
(ps - canal dredging in evidence Hebden Bridge area, seen from train and someone mentioned it)

John sank the last of his flagon of Gruntfuttocks finest and settled back in the lounger on the poop deck of the Thunderpunt. This punt was a bit of all right old Flappyshorts had really done well with his new build. He sighed as he watched the final arc of the sun disappear. "Another beautiful day" he muttered " Lets hope this will be the start of a glorious summer of cruising" He stretched and farted "Aaaaaarrrrrrgggghhhh " he shrieked as he headed for the hatchway "I have got to give some thought to changing my favourite tipple" He slammed the gas tight hatch behind him "I wonder if I laid off the pickled squirrels nuts it would help ?"
