As we approached Brownsover yesterday my ears were assailed by loud music coming from, of all places, a CRT work boat.
It's the sort of thing you come to expect on a building site ... but on a canal? A site radio was on top of the boat blaring out rock music at high level.
As we passed I commented on the intrusiveness of the loud music.
Me: "Does it need to be so loud?"
Worker: "Why, is it disturbing you?"
Me: "Not just me, but anyone else who might be expecting peace and quiet."
To the worker's credit he did turn it down but, of course, I don't know what happened to the volume after we had gone.
I had thought CRT was keen to promote canals and rivers as havens of tranquillity. If so, it needs to tell its staff.
