PG is touring with an orchestra at the moment which would be inordinately expensive.

Mind you, he could be backed by the original Bay City Rollers and I'd still watch him goggle-eyed  Lips Sealed he can do very little wrong



Yes, but then you were also a member of the Bay city Rollers Fan club, weren't you? Hmmmm.   Still I agree on the PG bit. Music god.

From the Cropredy Marina website:


There will be no permanent residential moorings.

But from the same site:

Our focus is simply to provide quality moorings for privately-owned boats– there will be no hire boats or commercial timeshare boats.

Actually I read that as meaning there will be no hireboat fleets based at the marina. If they have spaces during Cropredy fest I can't see them turning away a ready source of extra cash. Would be like Cropredy Stores only serving locals!

All those are things to help them get planning permission. Just because they say no residential mooring, it doesn't mean there won't be people living on boats there. People certainly live on boats in our marina, which supposedly has no residential moorings.

I wonder if the next step will be for BW to close all the long term moorings at Cropredy ?

It is BW's policy to get rid of linear long term moorings if they can. I can imagine that the moorers will be pursuaded to go in the marina.

Mind you, BW will cease to exist in a couple of months.
