Anyone ever hired a party on a river/canal boat?
Speaking gibberish on internet talkboards since last Michaelmas. Plus here on Twitter -
Yes, for an afternoon on the Taunton & Bridgwater Canal trip boat. In that instance I hired the boat & crew so I could have a birthday party on board. Not a noisy party, just a few hours cruising up and down the canal drinking champagne, eating cake and nibbles and watching the world go by. It was a lovely afternoon enjoyed by all.
A friend had his wedding reception (60 people?) on a riverboat on the River Tees. That went very well; the food was good and hot, there was a couple of bars, people could smoke outside - it was a good afternoon & evening.My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think. -

Think there was a hen party filled with lovely babes passing the other direction, which was pretty harsh - as there was no way of catching up with the totty after. Like wafting chocolat con curros in front of a dieting diabetic.......
The finance director took over the record decks and got a rollicking - influenced by more than a skinful.....
The best corporate day out I have had.Last edited by Wilmslow; 8 November 2010, 07:41.Comment
