And for me that's the problem. I could see the need for another bridge, the town was crying out for one but did it have to be another low lying opening bridge with all that entails. We (the town) are now saddled with the ongoing maintenance costs for not one but two unsuitable bridges. On the plus side as you say it is pretty but that doesn't make all its woes ok Ah well we are where we are and must put up with it but the council will not get a pat on the back from me. Martin

More like developers wanted something different and waved a big "we won't develop unless we get what we want" stick at the short sighted council, muppets no land owner would of sat on waste land forever.

Wrong bridge wrong location but then BOP were told this by loads of locals when it was first dreamt of but now I guess we have to make the most of what has been forced upon us

Hi Malcolm and welcome to pbsbac, I'm sure you'll get plenty of help in due course. If your fairly local why not come to the meeting this Thursday and meet a few of us.

How about "Compost" sorry Jim WestPort Pilots look to be good boats enjoy this one (and use it) more than the last one Martin

If your after hydraulic trim tabs then http://www.magicmarine.co.uk/mm.php are based in Broadstone so if you collect you save postage Martin

So as not to disadvantage smaller boats should that not read per person? thats how our species comps have all been fished in the past Martin

After 100 years lying on the sea bed, Irish divers were amazed to find that the Titanics swimming pool was still full.

That will probably be a server glitch, out of our control (I think) Martin

working fine for me, try cleaning up your pc Martin

Hey well done Gordon on reaching such a ripe old age Hope you had as good a day as we had Martin

Read whatever you want into other members posts. Shame really as the orignal report was a cracking day but as this thread has turned into a near slanging match and has nothing to do with pbsbac it is now closed Martin

Cam What Tomo actually said was as follows: Not quite an accusation but advice so now who owes who an apology? It is always best to respond first hand not second hand Martin
