@darren250619652 жыл бұрын
The vast majority of those people (dog walkers, Horse riders etc) are enjoying what their doing, and probably don`t care what you are doing "to enjoy yourself". Your enjoyment does not infringe upon their enjoyment, so each to his/her own. It`s those who are unable to enjoy themselves, that seek to prevent others from enjoying themselves, that are the problem. The Inland Waterways Authority` are responsible for all rivers and canals, NOT the local council, or the police. Should someone complain you will be long gone by the time a water baliff turns up to inspect your watercraft permit. If one does actually turn up, he/she is not likely to wade into the water to ask for it.
