From my experience of running my quiet exhaust water cooled generator out of hours 🙄 ( due to my former work patterns), the biggest moaners were the selfish twats letting their dogs run wild on the towpath barking at any fecker within 200yards & those sawing, drilling, grinding etc in heavily populated mooring spots without any thought for anyone else.
So that's the reason I've voted..Fuck em ad it's also the reason I'll continue to do it...if you don't like it move!

Most people call it good manners. Something sadly lacking in today's society. Good manners and respect have long disappeared. Not just respect for others but for their property too. Well I like to think none of the above mentioned societal traits are actually extinct, they have always and will always form cornerstones of my personal philosophy and generally of those who's company I choose, along with inter alia kindness and understanding. We're still out here promoting Civility. Don't despair.  |

I suspect it's the curse of what johnv calls the idiot lantern. Invariably when I hear an engine/genny running out of hours, the tv is the purpose. I don't really care, but why moor near other boats? There are many miles of splendid isolation after all. Rog You'd think so. We often moor where no-one else does, to protect others and ourselves. Within an hour, there's another boat right up our arse. With hundreds of yards in both directions where they could have moored. Why? |

Spray foam up the exhaust pipe does the trick  Or a potato, and a long bit of twig to push it up the pipe. |

That even happens on the K&A, where you are obliged to cut a mooring out of the undergrowth with a machete. It must be our animal magnetism. Rog |

Tis pack mentality....many, despite professing to like solitude in fact cannot be alone..they feel safer near others.

Well, looking across over to the Bristol and Bath skylines this evening. I can safely declare that the recession, and day's of austerity are truly over.
Fireworks ? Feck me !!!....It reminds me of down town Baghdad in 1990.
