You were, of course, being ironic, weren't you Gerry? Because it's that sort
of crass commercialism that will ruin the canals in the long run. You can
already see creeping signs of it in boatyards where they charge for water,
or one local shop I used recently that I was convinced upped the prices when
they learnt I was on a boat. Frankly, anyone that interested can come and
see inside Justice for free. And I'd probably give them a cup of tea thrown
in. Naive, I know. And certainly not the way to make a quick buck. But it's
the way we've always done it on the cut. The way I like it.
