  1. Thanks for that. I'll mention that to him and see what he says.
  2. I don't know anything about 2-pack so thought I would ask on here for any advice that someone might be able to offer. As to your next 3 questions the answer is I don't know. To the rest of your questions the answer is no. Thanks for that. I will probably go with that then. As I understand it the boatyard in question has a good reputation so I don't think that they are trying to fob me off. So I will just have to accept that there may not be a guarantee I did phone around a number of boatyards but, unfortunately, they don't keep these sorts of records. Tony Barber, on the Alrewas, told me that so long as they run it down then it should be ok.
  3. Next month I am due to have my boat in for the 2-pack to be re-coated. However, the boatyard are insistent that they cannot guarantee the job without knowing which 2-pack is on there. As I don't have this information can anyone suggest which one I use. Or does it really matter?
  4. How about: Antidote to canal world? Whoopee we hear the German craft(11).
  5. I think their argument was "better to make them homeless than make them criminals"

  8. Thanks for the link. Have just sent an email.
  9. Hi. Birmingham Fuel Oils(0121 382 6262) on the Tame valley canal. We paid 65ppl last month. I believe that they also sell gas. They are just above the second lock on the Perry Barr flight. There is a door in the wall on the offside with a sign next to it. Just toot your horn or phone. Hope this helps. Tom

  11. Hi, Is it possible that you have the correct connector but it is faulty? I.e. there is no thread inside where the cable goes. Tom
  12. Thank you Nigel I had looked at the practicallaw.com site but couldn't relate it to this discussion. However, looking again, I realise that I needed to log in. I'm a lot clearer on it now. I very much agree, with any enforcement dispute, the first action is to contact CRT. I agree but would suggest that it encompasses any form of enforcement from pre-CC1 to section 8. Tom
  13. Ever since Tony Dunkley's first post, this topic, like topsy, has just "grow'd". I, like many others following this case, I suspect, find it informative and educational. At the moment we are all stuck in limbo waiting for the 24th. Hopefully this thread will keep us junkies satisfied till then. One thing that hasn't been covered, in detail, is the subject of injunctions. Nigel Moore Posted 22 October 2014 - 09:12 PM "Earlier in fact the time to initiate action was from the moment they revoked the licence in the first place. That took place months before he applied for a new one and was refused. The very first thing to do under those circumstances is to apply for an injunction against them acting on the situation. If nothing else, they dont care for that, and would probably offer an undertaking not to so act without at least initial discussion within the legal department at a higher level than is ordinarily indulged in." How would a person, in Tony Dunkley's situation, go about this? What does it involve? Could they get legal aid? As an aside may I ask Tony Dunkley why you didn't apply for one? All along I have thought it was out of ignorance, as it would have been for myself and, perhaps, many others. I'm not sure that this is correct though. Only yesterday it occurred to me that you had written some very knowledgeable and insightful posts. Tom

  16. I would be grateful if you could point me to the article if it has been printed. You've certainly sent me on a trip down memory lane. Tom
  17. Oops, forgot to leave a reply. Ooh, yes please. The last time I was down that way, sometime ago now, I meant to take some photos of the Ponty section up to the Knoll but, alas, just a fleeting visit. Tom
  18. My word that takes me back a bit. I worked there for about a year and a half when I was 18. I'm sure, when I was even younger, that the canal was a bit more navigable. Isn't there a trip boat running along that stretch somewhere? Tom
  19. That bottom pic looks like the back of the Mond nickel works in Clydach, ie the Swansea canal. Tom
  20. A much cheaper option is to put a kettle on the stove during the day. In the evening share the contents between 3 hot water bottles and place in the bed. We have an eco fan. Missus reckons it works. I disagree. Tom
  21. Hi. We are on the L&L at liegh heading towards Wigan. Does anyone know where we can get diesel? I have sent a text to John Bent on Ambush but, as yet, have had no reply. Many thanks for any help. Tom
  22. But would it tell me when to turn my fridge off? My ammeter tells me that, when its running, my fridge draws 6amps. When I'm charging I turn the fridge up to full. When my ammeter shows that my charger is putting out 6amps then its time to turn the fridge off. If I dont then I'm just wasting energy. Hope that all this makes sense. Tom
  23. tee hee reminds me of the "your the third one today mate" punchline Tom
