Desperate to sell winter moorings

BRITISH WATERWAYS must be desperate to sell their winter moorings writes Gillie Rhodes.
So much so that they are ‘stretching' the truth a bit by advertising the winter moorings at Hungerford on the Kennet & Avon Canal as having, amongst other things, rubbish disposal, car parking, showers and toilet facilities, when in fact there are none of those things...
Pretty annoyed
I would be pretty annoyed if I had taken up expensive winter moorings here expecting these facilities.
In actual fact there is a pump out, Elsan disposal and water tap about half a mile from the moorings, and car parking (if you can find any) in the town.
There is a difference in knowing the path and walking the path...
