  1. Hi All This is my first post and I am appealing to those of you who have been cruising for longer than me to give some advice. I live on a beautiful 60ft narrowboat called Victoria. My daughter, a veritable outdoors person, will be with me from the 23rd of December until the 5th of January. I am in Little Venice right now and want to travel either East as far as Hertford Castle, or travel West past Uxbridge into the Colne Valley, and perhaps as far as Ricky. I am trying to decide which route will give us the best outdoors, nature and historic experience and which of the two options will be most enjoyable given our criteria for what we enjoy. I have been into the Colne Valley (near where there are lakes on both sides) and it was quite lovely, tranquil and peaceful, but a part of me is thinking that taking the Lea up to Hertford could also be nice. I believe there are some hidden waterfalls in the Colne near the deep lock where there is a tea room cum bookshop at the lock?? Can you give me some advice based on your experience or point me to links of any blogs that might have covered these routes. As far as stoppages go we are safe in both directions until the 9th of Jan I think (for Kings Cross) and East the stoppage after Kensal will open tomorrow (20th December). If you know of any others so please let me know Looking very forward to your replies. Many Thanks RR
