Diesel on Thames between Kingston and Hampton Court

[Thallac]

Hi

I plan to travel upstream from Kew to fill up on diesel at the weekend.
Can anyone give me the name (or contact details) of the fuel place on the north side of the bank half way between Kingston and Hampton Court so I can check it is oprn in advance.

Thanks
Tim

That's Thames Ditton Marina. I need to fill up too, but they looked closed the other week and the shop was being worked on.

Thanks, will check. Thanks

Fuel is still open while chandlery is being converted to a coffee shop

Isn't Thames Ditton on the south side?

Thanks for that, you saved me a call and they're not always good at picking the phone up. Shame about the chandlery

Yes , but there's no fuel on the north side anyway. People get confused what side of the river they are on.

I blame all those excellent pubs and the absence of river Police

That probably accounts for the way some folks (drive) - navigate their vessels....
(think about it)

I can't be the only one who's seen boats with so many empties on the dash that the skipper can't see where he's going. I had one drift into me while a fist fight was taking place and one of the offending boats crew was attempting to refill the outboard, spilling petrol everywhere with a lit cigarette hanging out of his mouth!

Aha......you've met the skipper of Legacy then

 

[Actionmat]

In his defence, I think he only got that close to check that I was displaying a licence

Legacy was always a misnomer the boat should be called Legless.

Legacy was always a misnomer the boat should be called Legless.

One thing I can NEVER be accused of is being legless.

Mind you all 3 "Legacy"s have been shaftdrive - no doubt someone will now suggest it should be called "Shafted" !

More "Legend' or is that 'Leg End'
