Thames Boaters will.....

......no doubt breathing a sigh of relief , knowing that one of the Thames wunderkind has safely managed to navigate his boat round to " The Medways" premier boat club.
A debriefing will commence shortly, regards who to buy drinks for first and other vital concerns.

Yes we thought you deserved him The lorry drivers navigation was pretty good then.

The lorry drivers navigation was pretty good then.

Better than this lorry driver's 'navigation' yesterday, on the Embankment by Eel Pie Island. I can imagine it wasn't the easiest call to the boss, explaining that you'd parked in the river and had to be rescued by the RNLI.

Will be back as a visitor in July. Not paying EA a grand a year to pi$$ it up the wall...

 

[Portland Billy]

I agree with your sentiments.
The Thames annual license is far too expensive. I am seriously considering a move to the Broads.

took ages for the two chairs to float past!

a totally unfounded rumour states that one of those was pushed into in the middle of their workshop and the rest of a Broom assembled round it.
The only actual options were the type of net curtain and the length of the tassels on the lampshades.

£2 a day for an EA registration to use my boat for 365 days on the River.
I reckon that is okay.

That's for a boat with a LxB area of 360 sq ft.
