Since this topic seems to be going on for a millennium, if anything goes wrong, I just hope the insurance will cover if the small print has been read properly!

Point taken!

So why does Miles ( I think that is his name) do videos on youtube and doesn't show off in any way. So why don't you show how it is to be a live aboard and make some money in the progress?

Can I ask, when does it become too old to use the word 'Babe'?

If you want to stick to the facts, Griff wanted to show off. He has the boat and the skill, so with youtube about, why not have a bit of fun with it and look at me. I'm sure that is what youtube is about nowadays.

I'm sure you will be at a greater risk by being a pedestrian in London.

Don't you think I know that!

It basically means that they have eyes in the back of their head, or I think on this occasion, BA had a problem with her gearbox at the time and could only use reverse. So Griff had to step up to the task to get the girl home. Hopefully that answers your question.

Are shotguns for people who can't shoot accurately, as the shot is spread over a wide area giving what type of cartridge you use?

Personally I think you need to have pictures along with a blog, as I reckon that's what a lot of people like and you done yours really well.

Well personally if I was a privateer, I would be more than happy to pay a mooring fee, as they own the moorings and have to look after them. Perhaps if I was a regular on the broads, I would ring round boatyards to make them aware of me and the name of my boat and go from there, just to see who would accommodate me and their terms. What good it would do I don't know.

I'm sure many of you have seen someone vape from inside their car and it makes you feel like calling the fire brigade, so if pubs become vape friendly, I do hope they have a turbo extractor fan!

I just have to say that you have documented your holiday really well and the pictures just add to what a great time you had. Personally I wouldn't choose to have a boating holiday in winter unless I owned my own boat, but you really enjoyed yourselves and captured the broads at their best. Very few boats, great views but on the down side, the much needed electric post to keep warm.

Southampton really, you might aswell be living on the docks! Which still is not as idyllic as the broads.

If you are on a dual steer boat and you are on the top deck, there is natural drainage. The only problem is, you need to steer the boat, take a pee and not to soak what ever you are wearing down below.

I'm not sure, but this might look into America's people living on the water, which in my view, isn't that interesting.

I have to admit, it is orange and not yellow. Watching tv and looking at the forums and then trying to post, is not a good idea as we aren't women and can't multi task! Can of worms have been opened.

Are you sure you know how to use that black and yellow thing with all those zeroooooo's

As long as you get likes in your postings Ric, you cant be going far wrong and I'm sure there would be quite a few people who would miss your posts. As for a live aboard, I worked with a electrician who got the title 'Smelly Bob', as we couldn't come to conclusion whether he was saving on soap and water, or he just simply didn't use deodorant!

The wife, then I realised I was dreaming!

I always thought that bitumen paint was not eco friendly.

All boats need to use a hose to fill up their boats that is supplied and left in hopefully a coiled up state. With the freezing conditions we have had of lately, anything supplying water outside and that includes the tap even if the pipe is well insulated, problems will occur and will not be in the suppliers interest

I think the power issue has been answered in a previous thread, as for the water, it may be that below freezing conditions, maintenance and public use may not mix financially.

Now I understand, thanks for that

It wasn't me, but Finny the post was aimed at. Although the emoticons have been removed now looking at my screen!
