It's standard practice all over the network. I think nabo got an agreement that no more than a certain percentage of moorings should be sold off so boaters could still have somewhere to moor when travelling. I don't know what the percentage is. Mooring wardens are charging £25 a day overstaying in the Braunston area so there is no need for BW to employ anyone they have their 'volunteer' staff. There are no notices that you will be charged just a knock on the door from the mooring warden. Sue
