Good morning,
I sent a message the other day but not sure it went through, we are looking to book a boat for ashes scattering, ideally on Saturday 3rd October. It would be for around 20 people and if possible could the boat go past blackfriars or is the route set and can’t go that way? Thanks Paul Coward 07783952849
Hi Sorry, Central London is not operating at the moment
Good afternoon,
I’m just trying to find out some details for renting a boat for 20 or so people for an hour on Saturday 3rd Oct or Sunday 11th October, it’s for scattering of my mother in law’s ashes and the main thing is that we go past Blackfriars on the route. Is this something that you could cater for on one boat?
thanks
Paul
