I'm sure your right Andy. It would not have been acceptable for the delivery of goods to have been delayed by the time-consuming realignment of TV aerials. Also there were Elf and Safety considerations in those days which don't apply now; don't want boatmen slipping on those icy gunwales whilst aligning their aerials do we? ;-)) Roger
