Re: Access Awareness April 2012
In that case Kendall, my apologies. I had not picked up on the fact that it was not your wording. I obviously should have been directing my comments to the originator. I agree that I don't think that a protest at the selection races is appropriate, but for different reasons. I don't think apathy rei...

The first is an artificial, purpose built, site that has cost someone money to build and run and thus the owners have every right to charge for its usage.

Re: Access Awareness April 2012
Hi Ho, here we go again. I'm afraid that I must take issue with the wording of Kendal's epetition as it re-inforces an incorrect view of the law around access. The statement Scotland (and most other countries) allow non-powered craft to navigate any of its waterways. However, this is deemed to be tr...
