Do u mean to say one of those stakes is called a wrecking bar.?..wonder what i could wreck with that it has a bit of a look of an old blacksmith made one to me. Ageist! Just because it's rusty doesn't mean an 'old blacksmith' made it. Some of my best friends are blacksmiths.

I honestly believe most people on here, and a good majority over there are good people. It's a shame to focus on just the bad, as that certainly does 'suck the joy out' of the forums. I'm certain Davies and the rest view this place endlessly ... but there's no way they'll be jumping in any time soon. Don't let them put you off Peter Rog The blessing is we are unlikely to meet either of them on the cut. Perhaps the bitterness is a consequence of boatlessness.

Talking of dogs and blacksmiths, my friend had a little dog called Blacksmith. Every time he went to kick it it made a bolt for the door.

It depends what you want to wreck but if the shed needs to go I think it would be straightforward specially with the sledgehammer to help Eta it would be nice to see a picture of the other end. Tricky to tell from a photo but it has a bit of a look of an old blacksmith made one to me. I'd like that but not sure if you visit London by car. If so then next time I'll be around to make the tea. Without fail Its stored in sons store atm so once all sorted perhaps someone will be coming down by boat and I can get it to you that way.

More likely a consequence of being married.

The thing that surprises me is that why MJG has been allowed to post over there for so long. I don't know how many of you have read the Brexit thread over there but as the thread was locked I was awarded a 6 month 'warning point' for my final post, the one where I said I was blocking MJG and Graham. I was warned because it was inflammatory. OK, reading it again it wasn't the best but it was in reaction to being provoked, not once, but regularly. If I get that for one transgression how does MJG get away with winding up anyone he think he can? He does it regularly. I took the liberty of looking at Graham's profile over there, maybe 15 posts showing, only 1 wasn't aimed at me and out of those 14 or so, only 1 of them wasn't inflammatory, nasty, personal, or similar.
How do they get away with it?

How do they get away with it? don't know ..... doghouse was banned then banned again for using his wife's account to continue a row, plus umpteen warnings etc. etc. All I can say is that I must have been a hell of a threat to the establishment to get a life ban without any previous

How do they get away with it? Mjg has been banned several times, and regularly gets warning points. He just keeps it very very quiet. Rabies has had warning points as well.

I don't know why. But that is my favourite narrowboat. It definitely has a nice back end shape. I've seen it in person years ago did not really inspect closely but it does seem to be quite pleasing considering the fact it will fit in the coffin locks.

The result of the meeting was "what the heck?" as soon as they realised who you were the ban had to follow. Don't ask me how I know this as its classified suffice to say I know who you are as well and understand why you had to move your boat in such an unusual and hasty way. Its easy to say it was about the spring tides but I know different. Between you and me I'll keep it under wraps.
