Were they the place of registration or the place the boat worked from or something else? I quite like Braunston where Tony works but the boat was born on the Ashby...I'll dig out where it was built and launched as that might be more appropriate certainly for its provenance? still enjoying life on the cut and working?<br />Nev Wellshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07047359519459723079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-701428736862216823.post-85837722002134157382013-02-12T12:56:50.585+00:002013-02-12T12:56:50.585+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17412354083554248615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-701428736862216823.post-53763836987366361012013-02-12T09:28:52.919+00:002013-02-12T09:28:52.919+00:00Somewhere that means something to you, rather than...Somewhere that means something to you, rather than where you happen to moor at the time. Or perhaps even better, somewhere that's significant to the boat - particularly with a historically interesting boat like Percy.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01759448161130667128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-701428736862216823.post-31800116020413239582013-02-10T23:16:04.215+00:002013-02-10T23:16:04.215+00:00Gents,

I didn't want to put "Lancaster" on either as that might have tempting fate as things weren't too definite. So the obvious was to put Norbury Junction, which was fine until last year - when I moved Starcross to Uplands!<br />I shall have to have another think when the next paint job is due, but that hopefully won't be for a few years yet.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14502754753792780008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-701428736862216823.post-11656873415693851412013-02-10T22:23:33.452+00:002013-02-10T22:23:33.452+00:00By the way, Nev, Percyland seems to be eight hours...By the way, Nev, Percyland seems to be eight hours behind the rest of us.Halfiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00167481543065324357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-701428736862216823.post-62342981203022786212013-02-10T22:21:46.255+00:002013-02-10T22:21:46.255+00:00I think anywhere on a British waterway - derelict ...I think anywhere on a British waterway - derelict or restored - is fair game. What doesn't work for me is the owner's home town, Romford, say, with no waterways connection whatever. I've seen it done.
