http://narrowboatstarcross.blogspot.com/p/guide-to-boat-ownership-whats-involved.html
The Blog That Used to be Starcross. Boats, Beer and Buses. A Guide to Boat Ownership. It occurs to me that this section has become rather lengthy over the time I've been writing it, so to begin with here is a very quick summary of the costs of boat ownership as I have experienced them:. Boat Licence 2012/13 (12 months) £710 with prompt payment discount. Insurance: 2012/13 £112 per annum. Bottom Blacking - About £400 - every 2-3 years. River Canal Rescue - £147 (with no claims bonus). 2 Get a Licence.
The Blog That Used to be Starcross: Unlucky for Some
http://narrowboatstarcross.blogspot.com/2015/07/unlucky-for-some.html
The Blog That Used to be Starcross. Boats, Beer and Buses. Monday, 27 July 2015. Sometimes you really do have to feel sorry for people. I did so today when monitoring the 48hr moorings at Lancaster. A coach party had just arrived and were making their way through the rain along the wharf to join the Budgie Transport trip boat. On my way back from checking my other mooring sites, I called in to see how work was getting on and found that this party had been particularly unlucky. Other sites of Interest?
The Blog That Used to be Starcross: Update on That Barrow
http://narrowboatstarcross.blogspot.com/2015/07/update-on-that-barrow.html
The Blog That Used to be Starcross. Boats, Beer and Buses. Monday, 13 July 2015. Update on That Barrow. Despite the month-long stoppage at the Lune Aqueduct, CRT has asked its volunteer moorings wardens to continue checks. I check the busy Lancaster moorings more often than the rest of my patch and last Friday, after doing so, I continued up to the breach to see what was going on. CRT staff have installed a rather impressive pipe along the towpath to secure the water supply for the section below the leak.
The Blog That Used to be Starcross: Milk Bottles.. . . Yes, "Milk Bottles"!
http://narrowboatstarcross.blogspot.com/2015/08/milk-bottles-yes-milk-bottles.html
The Blog That Used to be Starcross. Boats, Beer and Buses. Friday, 7 August 2015. Milk Bottles. . . Yes, "Milk Bottles"! I'm pretty much confined to barracks at the moment, having hurt my back, meaning I can't get out and about very much. No monitoring of moorings for CRT and I've even had to turn down the offer a day or two's boating on Jubilee with Halfie. But I can still sit behind a computer (as long as I don 't do so for very long), so here goes. And there have been other things along the way. I don...

WhatKathyDid: December 2010
http://whatkathydid.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 28 December 2010. A proper white Christmas. Regardless of what the bookies say, Christmas in Dublin was as white as white can be. We took our plastic bags up the hill and flew down at top speed, getting caked with ice and snow as we braked. Brilliant! Links to this post. Thursday, 16 December 2010. On stage at Bright Club. Something I never, ever, thought would happen: me doing stand up. This was last Monday at Bright Club. Links to this post. Friday, 3 December 2010. This one's for you Lee!
WhatKathyDid: November 2010
http://whatkathydid.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, 11 November 2010. Out of the sandstorm into the rain - love it! Can't wait to get down to the boat this weekend. The weather promises to be sunny. After 3 days of winds and rain. Mind you, I can't really complain about the weather. On Monday I was enjoying 27 degrees-worth of bright sunshine in Leptis Magn. A, Libya. I was working at the weekend doing teacher training for doctors but had the Monday free. On Tuesday we had to fly home in a sandstorm! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Thursday, 24 June 2010. Can't believe I've got toothache. Again. In the tooth next to the root canal one. Learned my lesson and got a dentist appointment next week. In other better news, I'm going to the boat this weekend where my dad and F are going to finally help me fit the new doors! Links to this post. Sunday, 20 June 2010. Got straight back on that horse.after 6 months. After our January crash. Links to this post. Saturday, 19 June 2010. Marjorie of Moonsilk Stitches. Links to this post. Well, in a...

The Boat Trip Years. When, Where, Who. . .but not Why! The New Year Trips. 1979 – Guillemot. 8221; One of the crew won the raffle in the Three Tuns at Fazeley and they all got free butties because there was a darts match on. (Note to younger readers: darts matches are what happened in pubs before quiz nights were invented! There is a report of being delayed at Atherstone locks because of the number of other boats – the only recorded instance of this I have come across. Guillemot, from Willow Wren at Rugby.

The Blog That Used to be Starcross
The Blog That Used to be Starcross. Boats, Beer and Buses. Sunday, 25 March 2018. There's been a lot of fuss about passports recently. What colour should they be and where should they be printed. So I got out one of my old pre-EU "Blue" ones. This one was issued by the Liverpool passport office in 1985. If you look closely you'll see that our old blue passports weren't blue at all - they were definitely black! I got this little lot just by crossing from one part of Germany to another in 1988. Some people...

Narrowboat Tacet
Our gap year travelling the inland waterways. Sunday, 23 March 2014. The Tale of Tacet. Hi, nb Tacet here. I see this blog has had no postings for a while, it seems the Skipper and his First Mate have disappeared off, goodness knows where and I’ve been left sitting and reminiscing about my journeys over the past 14 years. So perhaps I’d better see if I can make sense of what’s going on. It’s going to be ok, I’ve got some new Friends, who will take good care of me and enjoy my company. I s...This season o...
