"Non canals"
Well this isn’t boat related but it may save someone a few pounds, so let me mention my banking experience today.
First Natwest, with whom I have held a business account for 10 years who have just told me. “Sorry we can’t send that because we do not have your address on file.” What? After [...]

A quick holiday report but not canal related – sorry. The only link I can think of is snow, as for the last 4 days I have been in and around the Austrian and German Alps, while the UK is recovering from the most snowy winter in memory.

Blatant Non Canal bit: I think I have known the words to Wonderwall for 15 years but never imagined singing it to Oasis – along with something like 80,000 others who also [...]
Continue Reading →The Royal Mint has made 200,000 20p coins without a date and a coin dealer has set up a very generous offer whereby the first 25,000 people to register online will be able to sell these coins for a profitable £50.00 . Their special website, www.undated20p.com, today says the first 10,000 places have gone with a further 15,000 [...]

I’ll keep it quick then. By total coincidence I decided yesterday to check the spring tour dates for Wishbone Ash – a few years ago I used to go to up to ten gigs per year, including following them to Europe, so I guess I could have been [...]

Looking outside at the rain I can’t get inspired to write anything about canals today so here’s a few jottings about our holiday instead. Personally I can’t see the attraction [...]
Continue Reading →Changing the subject from life on board slightly, this week I have been on holiday. Not quite as exciting as our last trip to Moldova and Ukraine, but still off the beaten tourist track. We flew last week to Riga, capital of Latvia, travelled overland to Tallin in Estonia and flew back yesterday from Helsinki, [...]

Seeing Snow Patrol was actually the reason for this trip to Manchester. I would hazard a guess that I was the only member of the audience who had made a 7 day round trip – and it was certainly worth the effort.
Every time [...]
Continue Reading →Digressing from canals for a minute, I need to vent some steam after a seemingly endless dialog between me, two guys who bought something from me on Ebay, a guy I bought something from on Ebay and the DVLA.
To cut a long story short I sold my old car to someone in Poland. I wanted to [...]
