We always load the boat with ample beer and wine @@hxtr but the rule is that I (the skipper and helmsman) do not open a single bottle/can whilst we are navigating.  Once we tie the boat securely to a mooring, we can begin to party.  The DUI laws apply to boats in the same way as they do to cars but the cops would have a hard job stopping you or giving you a breath test whilst they are on the bank and you are in mid-stream! :)

We are on a 48-hour mooring currently so have been for a roast beef/ roast turkey lunch with beer and wine.

 

Another photo for you:

If you have a crayfish trap...put it out over night and collect in the morning before you go off. Most canals have an abundance of them so you can get some good eating from them!

You need a permit and can only take American Signal Crayfish.

I know. Environmental agency are doing them for free, and 85% of British waters have them. Of you state they're for personal consumption they'll likely give you the licence.

hey WTF all them beer look warm ??

 

One does not refrigerate real ale.  I know various countries around the world view getting beer ice cold as essential to its enjoyment but, here in England, much of our beer is at "cellar temperature".  Lagers and pilsners are another matter.

 

In case you were in any doubt, though it is now June, England could not be described as "warm"! :lol:
