There's a very similar situation at Fradley Junction. Lots of 'towpath' disappears into a private road, up to Shadehouse lock. Moorings are £5.00 a night on the towpath anywhere near the Swan, and it isn't a Swan problem, it's leased to the geezer who owns the nearby caravan park I believe. it has been £5.00 a night there for as long as I can remember..

The old ones are always the old ones, WotEver!

Pedantry, not Pedantism!

Can you tell me when that was? It may have been me. I was photographing Shade House on behalf of the owner, with a view to helping him sell it. It was launched from his land, in this case his private mooring opposite his house, and flown overhead his property with his permission. As far as I'm aware, I was operating within all the guidelines issued by the CAA, including checking for 'No Fly Zones' which do not apply to this area, and waiting until there were no boats nor people within 50m (that I could see).

Battery type settings? A 'custom' setting maybe?

Our ex-eberspacher used to do this too. The fault was the burner pot being coked up with hard black thick deposits. We ended up buying a new burner pot (£100 then) and just kept recycling the cleaned one every service. It ran ok after that. We think it was crap diesel combined with running it too gently.

Our teacher used 'Tom Offered Anthony Some Of His Cattle And Horses'. I STILL don't really know what it meant!

That reads a bit odd to me. 'Some Of His Cattle And Horses Tom Offered Anthony'?

I've been a long-term lurker from about 8 years ago but couldn't remember my old forum name. I too don't really post here any more because the 'life' seems to have gone from here. I was a member long before Gibbo 'retired', just to put a date on it. Just sayin'.

Good effort, MissMax!
