Hi Beeky and All, Know where your coming from, what the hell is normal. Going away for the weekend, oop north, so went down tonight to make sure all was well with the ropes on LT. She seems to be sitting about 2 foot about where I would expect her to be. There is clearly something stuck underneath her as pulling hard on the stern rope to centralise her on the mooring proved impossible. Anyway, all seems to be OK around the midlands, Severn has now peeked and any major crisis obverted. Some properties have been effected and my heart goes out to them.
