Thought you might like to know that membership is now well over 100 (including lots under 70, Chris !) and rising daily. (Gerbyl Wotsit doesnt seem to have signed up yet, though :( )

Got myself into a little bovver over on the Canal World forum where I popped in to encourage Gold Licence holders and Thames visitors to join up. Within 48 hrs that thread exceeded 3000 views and 150 posts and boy did I get a roasting from some! Several did join the TMBA though - including a couple of enquiries about affiliate status - and quite a few of their number eventually made me feel welcome. Some even encouraged me to stay around !!!!

You can see the thread HERE if you have a few hours to spare :D

Shh dont tell them all.

Someone unveiled my face :D

Serves you right for having an alias (hehe so do I)

I lost the will to live about half way through. On the plus side it does make this place seem positively harmonious by comparison :D

Dunno, looks like some of the threads in the Lounge or Motor Boat fora.....

Whatever, it's any port in a storm. Having exhausted the potential (or seemingly so) of raising interest from Thames resident boaters, I take my hat off to B1 for spreading the TMBA net wider.

I gave up at post 103ish don't they have boats to go out on, as for Narrowboats aren't motorboats shrewth its a boat with a motor isn't it :rolleyes:

Well done Tony you held your own, at the end of the day anybody with an interest in the Thames is welcome.

PS: The prop is a high performance prop not suitable for the Thames so I think you should change it, ducks....

They like to get their knickers in a twist, I think it must be one of the qualifying requirements for owning a sewer tube.

A quick kick from a "yoghurt pot" owner soon gets them squarking :D

No need to duck.....but it ain't going to happen ! It looks like a prop, people recognise it as a prop .....etc etc ....yawn

As a matter of interest, has anyone realised the significance of the central device in the 'hub' ?
