A couple of more points now that I can see a large print out! You have shown little Venice as a junction but not shown the Paddington Basin arm You do not show a junction symbol at the start of the welford arm The Alesbury and Wendover arms are two different junctions on the GU, albeit very close together You do not indicate in the key what the dotted setion of the Severn is (Unnavigable) or the symbol for the Old bedford river Hope this helps Tim

Just printed it at A1 on my plotter at work and the qulity is excellent! - can send you one if you waould like. Just a couple of comments: I would have pointed the Runcorn Arm at the MSC rather than the Weaver The key states that a Circle is a Canal Junction but you have several on River Junctions (Hull, Avonmouth, Weybridge, Tewkesbury etc - perhaps 'Waterway Junction' You have the Junction with the Regents and the Thames as Limehouse Basin whereas I would j=have thought that Limehouse is a more acxcurate description.
