Oh no I’m very sure I wouldn’t want Tony on my boat. But I’ve got a tent he can have if he needs it. Have you got a picture of your tent? I took this of one of mine this Summer: 1.1 kilogrammes - candidate for the Pennine Way (which I am doing when I get the chance) I'm going to do the South downs way and the new King Alfred's way next year.

Wainwright used to offer a pint at his expense at The Border Hotel in Kirk Yetholm... do you get a burnt cake for completion of King Alfred's Way? That's a Hilleberg Akto, by the way. I've used it a couple of times. £210 from Ebay. Like new. I also got (from Ebay) a Terra Nova Laser (not sure exactly which version) which is, frankly, a Chinese rip-off of the Akto. The Laser is Made in China - the Akto is Made in Estonia. Neither beat my old Phoenix Phantom, Made in Amble, Northumberland, UK, for clever design and ease of pitching/packing up. It's a 2-person tent and as I recall 2.6kg.

When offering emergency accomodation to people who you "sort of know but are not quite sure about" it is important to take into account the durability of toileting arrangements Oh no I’m very sure I wouldn’t want Tony on my boat. But I’ve got a tent he can have if he needs it. Couldn't you let him sleep on the stern deck for three weeks? I'm sure it would do him the world of good.

Parts of Nottinghamshire are expected to enter Tier 3 restrictions as talks are being held between local leaders and the Government.
The areas reported to be in line for Tier 3 restrictions are Nottingham city, Rushcliffe, Broxtowe and Gedling.
It is also understood the new alert level could come into effect on Wednesday, October 28.
The government advice is that people living in the very high alert level may continue to travel to venues or amenities which are open, for work, or to access education, within a very high alert level area, but you should and aim to reduce the number of journeys you make.
Am I allowed to leave Nottinghamshire under Tier 3 lockdown?
Residents are advised "not to travel into or out of an area if it has been categorised as a very high alert level area" to manage the transmission of coronavirus.

Why didn't you just call it "contractors tow away Tony's boat" ? I wonder what @rayg has to say about all this. Because it made me quite sad to see. Thank you for saying so Kris, and for what you've said in your other posts. You were pretty close to the mark back on page 15, by the way, when you said - "It looks like they have taken his laptop". For obvious reasons they would have much preferred it to be left behind with all my paperwork records, but settled instead for it getting damaged in the scrum when the four coppers piled aboard to separate me from the five unidentified 'enforcement officers', . . which is why I haven't been able to put anything on here until now. All the vital stuff has been retrieved and put onto another machine and a back-up hard drive, . . including a couple of C&RT internal e-mails from last March regarding the extent of the MNC at Barton Wharf, both of which are definitive and in agreement that it doesn't extend to anywhere near either bank of the river, . . . or in other words, that under Part II, Section 4(1), and Schedule 1 (as amended) to the BW Act 1971, the mooring where the boat was taken from is NOT in C&RT controlled waters ! You've been, shall we say, a little reluctant to take up one or two of my suggestions of late, but I'd see it as a great favour if you'd give some consideration to what I'm going to ask you now. How about changing the thread title again ? I think - C&RT, the only Charity that works to make people homeless - has a nice sort of ring to it !

As you like Tony, but I don’t think they are the only charity that makes people homeless. I’ve heard of the national trust doing similar although probably not in the underhand disingenuous ways that cart do.

In fairness Tony, you did post that you had been attempting to goad CRT into seizing your boat for five years so you can't really complain when they do.

Physical drives have an annoying habit of working one minute and for no apparent reason not working the next, as well as getting lost or stolen. If it's that important (sounds like it) consider uploading it to a 'cloud' service. Google Drive is free and easy to use, accessible from any device you have.

In fairness Tony, you did post that you had been attempting to goad CRT into seizing your boat for five years so you can't really complain when they do. Who's complaining ? I'm certainly not ! All the thought, time, and effort that's gone into this has finally seen C&RT act on the ill-considered threats they've been throwing around since late 2015 and seize and remove a vessel that, on the strength of maps they've produced themselves and internal e-mails, was NOT on their waters but was moored to private land, over privately owned riverbed, in part of a river which statute specifically excludes from their control. In simple terms, they took eye off the ball. Whilst I've been arguing against their insistence that a boat compliant with all the BSS Exemption criteria should be subject to a full BSC examination, the fact that the boat in question was no longer either using or on C&RT waters has progressively moved out of their warped and shambolic trains of thought until forgotten completely.

I guessed that as well Tony but I was concerned (and incidentally so was Peterboat) as I wasn't able to get you on your mobile to check you were ok

This would amount to theft? And the Police are doing what? Have newspapers been alerted?

Where you have always gone wrong in your vendetta is in assuming that CRT behaves like a person. It doesn't. It is an organisation and it follows procedure just like any other organisation- HMRC, DVLA, DVSA etc. It does not have "a personality" and it is not interested in your spurious claims as to why you need not comply with its licensing requirements. You didn't comply with its licensing requirements, it followed the enforcement chain and this resulted in Halcyon Daze being towed away. We did warn you that this was going to happen but you wouldn't listen. If you feel that they were wrong in law to do this, then by all means take them to court. The court will find in your favour or against you, depending on what the relevant law says. In a way, yes, I do feel sorry for you. But you have brought all of this on yourself.
