There last Thursday night, excellent curry and washed down by an excellent stout.. Lovely pub

One for the small claims court then as you have a witness .

Anyone ever made a claim against another boater? Last year I stopped to help pull an historic boat out of silt and the completely inexperienced owner once clear managed to put a 5 m scrape down the side of my boat 1/2 meter anove my gunwalls with his high bow missing my windows fortunately . I don't mind the odd scrape but this could have taken out my windows. He refused to give insurance details. I got his CRT number but they ( CRT ) refused to release his insurance details to my insurer siting data protection.

Newton Crumb are worth recommending too.

Developed by a lovely couple of vloggers who have passed it on, however it appears to be permanently out of stock. Shame. Anyone noticed lock gates are wrong way round on box ?

A few cryptic clues here , think Eton Mess will be any better lads ?

And the Barbridge inn has closed, looking for someone to take on the lease but costs are eye watering. It will be houses in couple of years with lovely garden moorings I reckon

😂🤣🤣😂. Err. Not exactly.......what a load of b****cks

Correct...now edited 🤭

Current boat was Oakums Bickerstaffe built their first boat. Yes I too was amazed at the short lead in time. The latter company now owned by Eton Mess.

SU stopped due to above incident . CRT update tomorrow. Looking at picture and comments on FB, it appears it got stuck on cill. All crew safe.

Yes. I think it was completed Tuesday morning, a day early

Llangollen eistdefodd tonight features Sir Tom Jones, however organisers have closed the towpath unbeknown to CRT , presumably to stop people listening for free . As tickets are £210 a head can you blame them , and there are quite a few unsold Who is in charge of towpaths CRT or local councils ?

Just rang CRT not expecting an answer on a Sunday but confirmed, winding hole is also out of action. So it's a day in Nantwich, there are worse places to spend a day I guess. A couple of hire boats went down last night not aware of closure.

Currently in Nantwich and thinking of last minute cruise down to secret bunker at Hack Green. Is the winding hole useable ? I would have thought so but now looking at CRT diagram the red line extends beyond the winding hole to the North and beyond lock 1 to the south. It's a long way to reverse back to Nantwich .
