  Sea Vigil is a fairly regular visitor and, as the Environment Agency doesn't appear to have suffered the same degree of cuts that other departments have, she always seems to find something to do.
  
  I caught her coming through the lock on Tuesday.

  I think Paul is referring to these moored at the Crosswall. I bet they keep your sandwiches nice and fresh!
