I'll buy you a pint at Kelmscott!

Wouldn't be enough Fred, some are single span already and would need lifting!

Methinks you mistake Fred's intentions - DEMOLISH he said, so air draught would not be a problem !

Yes, I think I realised that after I had posted!

The solution is simple and will damage no bridges - we arrange a boat swop. Of course it's nicer up here so it will have to be on a 3:1 ratio. That is, one day on Moxon gives me 3 days on your fancy big boats. My mother lives in Maidenhead and would like nothing better than a champagne cruise to Henley, (so make sure there's plenty of bubbly in the fridge please). At my end I shall make sure the galley is well stocked with tins of Waitrose chicken Jalfrezi, Stag brand vegetarian chili, 'Full Monty Breakfast' and other edible delights. Please form an orderly queue.


Plus Cashbuyer - I didn't realise you were 'up here' what dog do you have? I'll look out for you

Glad you got there in the end. More pics of your new boat please.

I just updated my blog with some notes about the trip and a few piccies. Am sure there will be many more in future ;-)

I have to agree about Orca. Walk past her at least twice a week whilst walking the dog. Always stop and have a sneaky look. Something about her. I bet her history is pretty interesting.

She looks a lot better now than when she was alongside St. Helens Wharf at Abingdon for a couple of years. Well done the current owner.
