Just a note, there is a grp travelling to Fradley junction, will be there or past there by now, has a load of crap on top, they are steering by looking out of the side cockpit. Two young men, leaving lock doors open, and a paddle up. Lost a load of water at Alrewas pound, which I have refilled after being grounded. Will probably cause more havoc as they continue, boat is listing to one side. Apparently they have an adjustible spanner to work the paddles. Be aware.

Have seen lots of heavy vehicles travel down the towpath by there, I wonder if that is part of the causal problem.

Could stop boats planning on going to Liverpool for some time.

I’ve got three, given to me at some time, I use them as a trivet on top of my stove in the winter.

Just a reminder to anyone coming this way at the weekend, it’s a festival of travel, so , on Sunday there is a trip up and down of all the boats. If wanting to moor you will not got very close to the centre.

Getting busy at Lymm for there transport weekend. Sunday is official day.

Thanks, every couple of weeks, surprises me, never had a problem before in nine years, but thanks will look at it, MTB said much the same so will look at it., so what is a normal level on your boat, is it 0. Looking on net below 30 says ok , but obviously not if getting headaches.

Thanks, but have done that, and swept chimney twice. Thanks, that throat plate is already removed.

Hi , I have two co 1 alarms on nb, this year, I had problems with Morso stove. Kept on getting smoke blowing back into boat. tried a few different ways to stop it. Eventually found the problem , and sorted it with a cowl on top of chimney. All good. however when trying to sort it unsuccessfully initially, my alarm went off during the night. Well one did the other didn’t but was showing a lower reading. Since then I have been keeping an eye on the more sensitive alarm. It reads between 18 and 27, the higher reading causes headaches and I have to open windows overnight, 18 is usually the morning reading. is this normal .? should it be 0 all the time ? Had the stove 9 years, never noticed a problem before, but never monitored it before. would be interested in others findings and views.

Have a look on “ latelink” they are usually a bit cheaper and you can have a look at lots of different hire bases and routes they show on there all over the country.

There is always loads of spaces, don’t book it too early, see what the weather is gonna be like, not a fun trip if too windy.

The glass does crack with time, doubt it’s the door rope.getting the new glass in is a bit tricky with new rope, and getting the sliding catches to hold it in. Use pliers to slide them back in to place.

There is so many new boaters on the canals in last couple of years, then I have seen in last ten years, so lots of people learning. U may be on utube if u pass them.
