I am starting to like this place. Quite seriously, Martin talks utter shite. Well, yes, that is true, but what you have to remember is that Thunderboat without Martin would be like Blackadder without Baldrick, and would be a far poorer place without his wit and wisdom.  |

As this is another of 'those threads' may I slip this in here? Had a look through this morning and made me wish I was free for some days to go cycle touring round East Anglia... not canal-related, but there's pics of Denver Sluice and a narrowboat ('Dream Catcher' haha!) towards the end: www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/?o=tS&doc_id=18528&v=LI |

You really do need to update your script. Either that or engage your brain and try and remember the dross you have posted previously, often more than once. |

MJG, the Caravan Utilising Nomadic Traveller.  Come on Iconoclast, don't be a complete and utter fucking knob. Do you have to drag your petty personal spats over here from CWDF?  |

As mjg is here - I was reading the book Canals and Rivers of Britain by Andrew Darwin (1976) again (this is the book that I found in a charity shop in Worcester 6 years ago and hatched my idea of getting a narrowboat) and note on page 153 it says, for the Leeds & Liverpool Canal:
"There has been a rapid rise in the number of boating businesses established along the canal..... One has even pioneered a powered pontoon for hire by caravan owners who wish to cruise the canal in their own caravan."
Water Gypsies indeed!!
