A Programme to watch

[pheran]

Waterworld........Discovery Home and Leisure 1700hrs daily
Mostly about canals and a lot about Birmingham but the exciting bit is the intrepid narrowboater who is hell bent on taking his tin snail to sea. Reached West India Dock today and is now planning the trip round North Foreland. I can hardly wait!!!

Will listen out for signal to summon crew of Sheerness lifeboat.

And here is the weekend weather..

Well I hope matron remembers to switch the tv on for you, and what are the visiting hours at the old folks home.

 

[pheran]

Pardon? Did your arrant rudeness come as a built in feature or is it the result of years of training?

 

[pistonbroke]

Years of practise and self denial.

 

[nautigirl]

ignore the guy pheran hes obviously a total muppet .... probably too long in the 6oclock club. I saw the program and that n'boat offers the potential for some real amusement ..........in a sort of a sadistic way! Obviously didnt sink tho...... otherwise they wouldnt show program

Would have thought there would be more interest if it sank. Especially if it was on film.

[nautigirl]

dunno about on film If it really had sunk it would certainly been on the News. Hang on - Ill just go and check my Notices to mariners might be a new buoy there

 

[joanne2]

Sounds like a good Rosie & Jim plot to me

Not that dopey pr*ck who took his tin tube to Dunkirk at the 1990 & 2000 rally is it? Cost us taxpayers a fortune with the resources HMCG had to use keeping an eye on him. He's also been stuck on a weir where they should have left him.

Re: Read all about it.........

Have a heart Coli. Without your (very quick and smart) intervention I would have had The Captain going all night on that one. Go on then, try GPIEPMUBL

Re: Read all about it.........

As you were watching the Discovery channel, stood to reason that it would be repeat material ! As the Progress website says.....
>>>DID YOU SEE PROGRESS ON TV?
Starting 2 January 2001 for 6 weeks - Tuesday Nights at 7.30 on Carlton TV
the adventures of Chris and NB Progress were shown as they crossed the
Channel to Dunkirk and visited Brussels to draw attention to the effects of the
Birmingham Northern Relief Road on the Lichfield and Hatherton Canal Restoration.<<<<<
I dont think you should laugh at chrissie boy cos your just as sad for watching Discovery at 5pm....IMHO of course.....
