Me three! No real presence on Cwdf in the past but it seems like death overnight, bit gutted but as has been said, times they change. Hope to be more involved over here. Well that was good, my first TB meeting and you helped me get in to a mooring that was 2' shorter than the boat! Thanks, and nice to meet you. Ha! Likewise. A whole two foot I had to move, you pain in the arse. Me mrs says where's the bottle of wine and she also wants to know if your gonna make the naans as she forgot 'em. Oh no that's my job! Have a good evening :-)

Hello and welcome. It's nice to see this forum starting to grow. I would like to encourage everyone (new members included) to start some boating related threads. The more stuff there is in 'General Boating' and less discussion about CWDF there is then i believe we'll see Thunderboat go from strength to strength. Good idea junior...I've seen you've started a few threads yourself, could I suggest that you also start one on your delivery schedule....it wouldn't be of much use to me as we don't cruise in your location, but it could well be of benefit to others that do. Maybe list all the services you provide so those new to boating in your area are aware. I'm a firm believer in supporting the working boats, in the 3 years since we left Braunston marina we've only bought gas & coal from the work boats; and with the exception of about 5 times (because we were on the Thames or River Lea) all of our diesel has been purchased from the work boats. MUCH better service and sooooo convenient especially the coal, for those who do not have a car. That's assuming you haven't done it already and I've just not come across it yet.

Still hitting the wrong buttons!! totally agree we need to get more threads running we need more diversity in our new home!!I'm sure it will come with time the influx of new members with Robust opinions will see to that!!
Having said that I'm still sadly addicted to the CWDF thread but hope to wean myself off it!! ~PS I'm also addicted to exclamation marks but hope to cure that soon too!!! Oh Bugger....
