[QUOTE=MoreJoe;1249623]The Narrow Boat community were not really warning about the mindless slaughter of wild life along the canal.
What they were discussing was the number of incidents of assault, robbery, vandalism and burglary that have been reported along the Blackburn, Accrington, Burnley stretch of the Leeds & Liverpool. If the stories are true it is not safe to park overnight anywhere in that section.

The number of Assaults, Robbery, etc, that you memtion Joe; are increasing nationwide, not just along our once tranquil waterways. Our so called "Law enforcement Officers", now seem more bothered about catching easier prey, IE
As in Derbyshire where they stopped and fined two females £200 each for going a walk during the Covid longdown whilst carrying a cup of coffee each; They classed this is having a picnic. You really could not make it up.
