There might be a yachtsman come along and he'd want a mooring, so he'd say to my father, can you fix us up  yes, get an old bit of chain and put round, put some wooden wed wedges in tighten 'em up,up, that's his, that's his mooring, he'd take it somewhere in the river, have it dumped, put a buoy on it, that was, that's like his anchor.
