I knew a smidgen but its good that someone ask the questions..... now we know... just so as not to rub Andy's nose in it so to speak... quite another to shout how fabulous the new one is so publically... only for it to go belly up (in his case) with the new one... Oooohh! You so did !!!

TODAYS news is there was an impromptu Thunderboaters Gin session in Nantwich last night... Roger has a lot more nicer gins than I do - twas good to sit (socially distant of course) on the towpath and chew the cud for a few hours... before we knew it, it was not far off the witching hour... ergo, I am a little fragile this morning. Lovely to see a TB 'social' ...do u intend to wear that mask set up with guests on board?

I'm not so sure ... in Mark's case I think the mask and visor add a certain ' je ne sais quois ' Rog

Hhmmmm, let's just think about that for a while. Skipton plaza mooring is getting a lot more visitors now that a certain grey boat is no longer a permanent moorer there. Roger (Skipton resident)

I don't knowy - a chap pays a little lip service to Boris and all of a sudden, he's the talk of the town - well if that's my furrow, I'll plow it well I suppose.
STILL, it looks like from 4th July we can operate - 1metre PLUS lol... trouble is, first guests booked after that date are from Germany! - 14 days in quarantine and with a cpap machine... you couldn't make this up.
I also bumped into a couple on a boat (electric hybrid ) today on route to Wrenbury ... who, incidentally were the first ever guests on Ellis in April 18 - they had their own boat built afterwards... THEY said, welsh police have been turning boats back at Chirk and the locals yobbing stones at boaters.... well that's nice.... perhaps this will be a shorter trip and expected.
hmmmmf

Heating up here in Wales and crazy parties on the beach....litter louts out in force and litter pickers cleaning beaches before high tide this am. The not so pleasant side of newly released caged humans seen... No objection to folks enjoying themselves but the mess they r leaving is pretty horrendous. As for social distancing..nah no chance. If there is a second wave I doubt they'll look at their own behaviour as being root cause...it'll be Bojo or schools etc....

My sister was telling me that Southend-on-Sea front and beach were heaving and that there is rubbish dumped everywhere.
As she said, there always used to be litter louts about but they were a minority. Now it seems to be that there is a large majority of them. She was also saying that it is very difficult to actually catch someone in the act, so they can be punished. (first hand experience)
Even if you have cctv coverage, that's no help unless you can identify the individuals.
