It's not your bank; the original land purchase, now transferred to 
BW, included a strip of the offside land, so EOG moorings are 
entirely on BW land.
   
  I once had a conversation with a lady on a boat on the river Soar who 
maintained that her bottom-of-the-garden mooring attracted *no* charge to BW 
because her property deeds clearly stated that she owned the land ''to the 
middle of the watercourse.''
  When I had originally asked her if she paid any dues she replied ''Do I 
f**k!'' 
  This from a lady whom I could imagine church-going every Sunday!
  She told me that BW had often sent demands for payment & she filed these 
demands under B [1] n.
  ''If you once pay up, you're eukered--if you ignore them--*they* are!''
  From our brief talk I didn't ascertain if she moored on a river or a canal, 
because I believe that riparian deeds differ from canalside ones.
