Stanley Melrose Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Things have moved on since then! I built something similar in the arena at a livery yard once. It didn't go down well..... No doubt it did eventually? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastwestdivide Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 (edited) There was an episode of Grand Designs with a couple building a houseboat out of scavenged junk (and getting moved on from one marina to the next). Well I say a couple - it looked more like he was doing it and she was doing a lot of shrugging and sighing.

RMweb Premium Coryton Posted December 10, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 10, 2017 Saw at least three Barbeques going on in Glasgow I've had a barbeque in Toronto in a few inches of snow. Well, the cooking was done outdoors. We ate indoors. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Enterprisingwestern Posted December 10, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 10, 2017 I've had a barbeque in Toronto in a few inches of snow. Well, the cooking was done outdoors. We ate indoors. There is a lot of tailgating done at sports events in North America, whatever the temperature. Did one at a New England American Football match in well sub zero conditions, and then went in the stadium and sat on aluminum benches for 3 hours, most invigorating. Mike. Mike.

Keith I don’t know the area at all or what the story behind the boats is but if a load of similarly adorned ‘colourful’ ex ambulances, post office vans, buses etc turned up en masse in a field and set up a new age camp they would be moved on in days by the council, how are (some of) those boats allowed to be moored there looking the way they do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally most house boats on the East Coast seem to be owned/designed/decorated by those who want to live some sort of alternative lifestyle and display it to others. Sometimes they are delightful, more often not. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
