Willow Wilson.... Just wondered..... Got a mate called Willow on a nice narrowboat at Beeston

Beekay.. I love nothing then giving my horn a good long blast... Which is quite often being that I'm a short arse on a 70footer

Me Mam and dad used to save up tanners and we'd fly off to Guernsey every year on the owd viscount.... First thing I did was to hire a push bike then bog off for the day, only saw mam n dad breakfast and evenings for the whole 2weeks......then I discovered that if I slipped a knife in the moneybox slot tipped the moneybox upside down tanners would come out..... It were me aunties in flipping South Wales from there on then!

Beekay... Its one thing being sat next the water.... Its another floating on it... Good job I'm not down there... The horns on me boat are very loud and I'd have to give you a blast as I floated by

What's the name of ya boat WW

Yeh proper sad to see big Jack Charlton like that

It was the whip that did it for girt

Brew.... We're not anti-social... In fact I speak to anyone... I'm very much liked here.... Like Beekay says there is always a crowd about when ya cock it up and they all know better then you even though most have never been on a boat never mind steering a 70 footer with a speed wheel Beekay thought I'd give em a chance with water

Yeh our girt can live in the butty with the 5 dogs.... Like the idea of the water cannon for the "gongoozlers" they're always there when I'm trying to "wind" me boat in the wind... Not easy with a slow revving thumper and 70ft

This month's tillergraph

Went round a mates narrowboat the other day and he's got 4 cats.... I was sat there chatting when 2 of his cats took a dump in the litter tray then jumped up onto the kitchen work top walked across it and out the window.... My mate then threw a few slices of bread on the work top and started making sarnies.... "want a sandwich mate" he asked.... Sod that I was soon out of there!!! Proper NO

My idea of heaven would be everything in John Lennons song "imagine" and a full length old working narrowboat with a Lister JP3 or a Bolinder in her

Yes I agree.... But still you'd expect to see more.... And saying that there's been a dead duck on the towpath for days now, I suppose the "carrion eaters" aren't that eager to despatch ducks

Well me first books that I remember were what I got every Christmas.... Rupert the bear, look and learn, beano and not forgetting the dandy....

Advantage of living on a boat... Saying that though the Trent only came up 7 foot last month... But what ever it does I'm on top of it

Yep LizzieM you are so reet.... Knew it were one of the Jeffs/Geoffs

Here's one for being there Here's one for lying about not being there And here's one that will make you cry!

Geoff's and Geoff's junior.... Used to get all me northern soul gear from Geoff's junior.... Got me first Oxford bags and cromby from there.... Think Geoff's was on Hockley and Geoff's junior was in Vic Center

Trent and mersey

Am bopping to a bit of northern soul.... Keep on Keeping on

Here's one.... The Manchester United Air crash in Munich which wiped most of the team... Well take the letters that spell Munich Manchester United Never Intended Coming Home

He now has a Kawasaki dealership in Grantham. I worked at foxes kawasaki center on Mapperley.... Which was started by Stan Fox of Fox sewing machines... Anyroad I was good friends with the walkers baby sitting chris as a young lad and later he was best man at me wedding and then when Sally died he was there for me and me boys

The Christmas do's were summut else.... Being a young apprentice among all the those shop floor girls....who needed mistletoe ????!!!.

Katyjay...... I totally agree with you.... And couples or family that throw insults at each other.... Didn't your mam ever tell you about "airing ya dirty laundry in public".... Oh and not forgetting the fake news on fb that everyone takes as gospel

Could be.... That's a lot foxes... But like where I am at the moment... Fox got a Swan on the opposite side of the river to me.. Ate a bit of it then the rest was there for near on a week until the trent came up and washed it away.... And just up the road two road Kills which haven't been touched.... Still makes me go "mmmm"
