I believe it is still on the status books and every local authority has a duty of care to register you. I know when my mate went and got his number Manchester Public Health had to go into the cellars to discover the register book and that was back in the early eighties. It was the first boat they had registered for over 20 yrs. -- cheers Ian Mac awaiting the vote grabbers, which constituency will they register in?
