No, I was referring to a lack of winding holes _between_ Trevor and
Llangollen. As I said, my old Nicks didn't show one - but it does now.
The point I was making was that it can sometimes take a long time to
reach Llangollen because it is narrow and the last time we tried it,
quite shallow. The 70 footer in front of us kept running aground which
kept everybody highly amused. So then it seems a bit much that once one
has arrived that one may then need to then go all the way back again
because one wasn't warned about the charges earlier and cannot take
advantage of the electricity anyway.
It would appear that there is a sign now but I certainly didn't see one
when I winded at Trevor last June (2005).
