The thread title seemed a glaring omission from this forum.

Sadly he is adamant that he won't participate here due to a perceived anti-egalitarian stance. I've tried explaining that it's mainly anti dunkfox but he won't have it.

This little ex 'pusher' tug (can it be called a tug if it pushed?) Used to cruise about on the Aire & Calder.  |

I admire his efforts to continue on as normal as those around home lose their heads. But yes,it's a little odd seems he still uses CWDF. |

And this little 'un. Used to moor on an EOG mooring near Burton on Trent. No winding hole required!  |

Kennet. Spotted a few years ago on the T&M. When that was at Gloucester I did a "Tug Diving Course" on it, very enjoyable and good to steer. It belonged to Tim Leach (RIP) for a while. |

It's odd but there are only two people that are actually barred from here .... Ross and Tony Stabby was here but without anybody saying anything to him he deleted his account, which surprised me. Steve J (et al) left in high dudgeon 'cos I told him off for causing trouble (re-introducing a problem from TB/the past) Don't know what happened to Donkey he just was gone. kris was on TB slagging off the unstablebar and supporting JD's rant I asked him if it was such an awful place why was he a member ? and he deleted his membership Andrew just deleted his account without comment ..... didn't understand that one at all, shame because I have met Andrew and like him |

Knew a girl with a wooden NB once. It was cut down from an ex-working boat and looked like a modern cruiser. Lovely boat (great ambience and handling qualities) but rotten as a pear.

TBH his attacks on others was a bit nasty, as were the responses, but the positive is that it isn't replicating here. I do wonder about Kris, he seems to be on a downward spiral. But Andrew is nothing if not contrary. |

Rog I first came across it when it was feature in one of the canal mags. That I think would be before we bought our boat in 2010. And then out cruising one day on our boat we came across it on its then mooring. Edit - just checked, that pic. was taken in Oct 2010, the first year we owned the boat. |
