Another bit of imformation I’d like from crt is the number of boats that haven’t paid for a liscence this year that had one last year. It seems lots of people are just opting out of paying them.

Are there going to be some beating hearts on the plate, or even better in bare hands?
That is too good for them!

This is usually published but wonders what happens about the boats they can not identify. Arrr they swept under the carpet or included in the stats?

I suspect the reality is, that some of us will complain and swap stories of C&RT's uselessness, whilst simply carrying on doing what we do, until old age or ill health drives us away from the canals finally.
Meanwhile new boaters arrive and describe this as a new golden age and will look back to say that today was their good old days.

I think once it’s gone to no number no name no licence and in Mickey mouse’s name. The only thing they can do is cable tie letters to them. If they keep moving end of story. Anecdotally it seems it’s increasingly becoming an option for a lot of people.

There is that.
I was chatting to the older offspring yesterday as she had no school so we went to watch the planes. I posited the theory that it is 'all fucked' and she countered by saying 'I think the future is full of good things'.
Optimism is more wonderfuller than ageing.

Of course there is always more fun action in the next closet.

No it isn't, I'm aging, tried to stop but not working, and I'm an optimist, thought my ploy would work but it didn't.
