Evening all, once again thanks for all the replies. We now have a new bt battery fitted. The original, installed on building during 2014 had no labels. Etched into the casing was 661210_ and that was all, which was difficult to see. It took about 18 hours of online searching to find an equivalent replacement/supplier which has a maker’s name and various bits of info.

We haven't been to Rugeley for a couple of years, however we noticed that The Shrew is in a building called The Talbot. FWIW if we pass by later we may post a photo presuming it's still in situ.

Thank you James

Is this pub The Shrew in Rugeley? Has it been demolished?

Very many thanks for all replies. Much appreciated. We haven't seen our boat since October 2019 due lockdown etc. The battery label is on the side of the battery and not visible until the big lump is lifted out, something we've never done. Fingers crossed we will see our boat next week and after clearing the cobwebs we'll lift the big truck starter battery out, take some photos then find the nearest Halfords after a cuppa. Thanks again folks!

Our BT installed in 2014 is a Sleipner twin blade 6hp 12V SE80/185 with/connected to a 240V marine charger operating from our onboard system. We need a new battery. We would greatly appreciate any advice as to what heavy duty battery to purchase. Thanks.

Is the crane still there? It was barriered off in 2018 when we passed through.

Help please. How do I report and delete the spam pm. Thanks

I received one too. Thanks mods for sorting this SPAM.

The only bit we liked in the whole programme was the little bit filmed at Napton Village Stores - and that was in a piece unrelated to canals.

What?

We've always found it fine there for a few days each time 2013 to 2019, handy buses for Blenheim Palace and Oxford, and helpful wardens.

Nice enough spot, last there in 2019., but that access road.... All the best to the previous owners, but perhaps ABC will improve the road ?

Probably both

Agreed!

Bloody hell! Not again.

Sad face:(

We completed it and thought nothing of it. It struck us as obvious CRT-based because of the stupid questions.

Well done Sir!

They look really cool - what a good idea. Thanks.
