I’d like to know if they still do the food at lunch in the back room, if they still do and you could photo the chalk board there it’d be proper proper ace, lunch time (10year ago) they’d put a spread for the workers and as quick as it were put out it were gone. id love to know if that still goes on, pie and peas etc.

Ceiling and wall with rock wool have survived very well since the 80’s, still in perfect condition, but below the floor’s not been such a good idea, over the decades it’s suffered with water ingress from wherever, soggy and horrible, has been chucked out from where I can get at it,

My boat is insulated under floor, rockwool, wouldn’t advise rockwool

they got the Empire beer on at the Navigation. I can drink and think of Slaithwaite and the Commercial 😃 Ha yes, the amount of times I ask for a taste and they pick a small glass “no, I’ll taste a pint!”

Good to hear (read) 👍 mind, anything I post is definitely a short walk from the canal I know someone who takes photos of trains 🤷‍♀️

Something for you to look forward to then. let us know how you get on. Bollington is a favourite place of mine to visit. It’s scenic and pretty. The Vale is the Bollington Brewery tap house. the brewery is now over the road. They do burger nights and quizzes I think. Was in there last Wednesday and was getting change for a tenner on a round of 3 drinks! There are other pubs there to explore, the other being of note is the Poachers. But it’s a long time since I’ve been in there, I’ve been told it’s still the same mind.

Fire extinguishers are cheap enough in the scheme of things: how about doubling up? a set to please the BSS and a set to do the job?

depends on your experience (and determination) been perhaps 6 years since I went along on me own, it was all doable and the swing bridges are a pain BUT doable because you work out techniques to get by. All worth it because it’s a lovely How long it’d take?🤷‍♀️ Best take as much time as you can give it. canalplan will give you an idea

interesting, but I can guess 👍

now if you’d only asked…we could have told you😃 sounds like you’ll soon be over the summit, good services at Littleborough (unless that’s changed!) oh…I’ve heard the famous chippy close where you are has shut too 😢

…some things are so obvious when pointed out! I do consider meself quite a practical person but failed to think of tapping the wedge with a pole/wooden batten or whatever down the tube, tomorrows job 😃, Ive had trouble with mine coming loose and I’m kind of paranoid it’ll come out as I lean with the tiller hard over and I’ll go splosh and the unmanned boat’ll go over me.

Was my first visit, it’s now on my list of must visit pubs when in area, I should have took photo of the impressive range of bottled beers too. if you want to drink good beer for £3 a pint go the Vale in Bollington 👍

It’s been popular for awhile now to sell 3 x 1/3 as tasters, I first came across it in woodenspoons maybe 20yr ago, The chalk board I posted is in a good little pub called the Samuel Oldknow, Marple, a short walk from Macclesfield canal And I should have said Greater Manchester (and not Cheshire). I see you got the Red Willow beer brewed in Macclesfield, I was on that yesterday, recommended by a friend first time I’d tried it, good stuff remind me, where’s this geezer from?
