Oh Adrian ! Surely you're aware of the linguistic device known as a rhetorical question. I've been working on an idea though. Suppose there was somebody who would be willing to take his barge from Warwick to Stratford via the route suggested. Suppose there was somebody else, a writer perhaps, willing to accompany the barge owner on the trip and record the progress day by day. Perhaps adding a spikey twist to the tale from time to time. Perhaps these characters might form an unlikely alliance and act as foils, one to the other, with their jousting and posturing. Paging Messrs Haywood and Stott, please report to the publishers office. Captain Beeky
