Re: New sports kit list

Re. football boots, these normally come with plastic studs attached, but for understandable safety reasons metal ones are required. (I'd rather have a bruise than a cut!)

Well, I guess they might exist, in that any vessel that travels a canal could possibly be termed a canal boat.

of course you could say that but you'd deserve a slap if you did :P

Re: Mental illness

I have a t-shirt which reads:

Roses are red
Violets are blue
I'm schizophrenic
And so am I

Re: Cruising

A narrow boat is a narrow boat. a canal boat doesn't exist!

Used to go on them quite a lot, helped bring one down from above Birmingham somewhere to Limehouse Basin marina in London once, as half of a crew of two. Great fun.

Re: Cruising

I work for Saga as of 4 weeks ago :-)! They've just bought a 4th boat and have perks such as door to port car service.
Can probably answer any specific questions in a matter of days... go Saga!

Re: GMT

In very nearly four years I haven't bothered changing the time on here once I'm afraid.
Haven't even used a watch for over six years! Does anyone still wear one or has the mobile phone taken over?
