Will only act if there is lots of precise info on problems. Your blog-site will help.<br />We locals have a strong campaign going, including a petition from boaters and pedestrians who think apart from the hazards to navigation, the whole over-designed expensive mess has ruined a beautiful place in Oxford. Environment Agency are trying to keep out of it although it is E.A. main channel. Again your Blog should get them involved. Do you know of other incidents? We have seen many like yours with boats wedged against the barrage. These have all happened in 'no-flow conditions' Later the hazards will be much greater.

...Dear Pete and Lisa, <br /> I hope very much you are both well. You have been truly missed since April 23rd I think it was I have to tell you both how much I am missing your blog, it is my bestest favourite of all the ones I follow, some are dreary but never yours you always make me laugh except of course your last entry. Very shocking. We are currently having a narrow boat built and my husband is not such a good swimmer.....<br />So enjoy your mini break form blogging but do say you'll be back later?<br />LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04612874187940845427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3772807458489546340.post-77169053813970353292011-05-01T18:37:08.643+01:002011-05-01T18:37:08.643+01:00This is summer time and we have had no rain.
