Loos talk

On recent visits to two waterways sites, I found old loos that had been provided for the use of the workers. Here are some photographs. There must be more such loos out there; I’d love to hear from anyone who knows of any.

Some updates

I have added some extra photos to the page on wooden boats. There are new photos of Christine (now given its name) and Cirrus (a nice photo, if I say so myself) and five boats have been added: Beal na Blath, Catherine B and Jemmy X, as well as two unidentified boats. If anyone can name any of the unidentified boats, I would be grateful.

I have also added two retired trip-boats to the page on non-WI working boats: one is on the hard in Banagher and one is Gertie,which ran trips from Keshcarrigan on the Shannon–Erne Waterway but has been tied up in Shannon Harbour for many years.
