Agreed, NBW is one massive joke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan de Enfield Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 And they have, look at the condition of the towpath, the gaily painted 'art' on the lock beams, the plethora of signs telling you where you are, 400,000,000 visitors have seen an improvement, it is only the tiny, tiny, minority who own boats who have seen a decline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that provides a neat circular argument - if you are moaning then you are not one of the "...millions who enjoy them" so you won't get the benefit!

Simples! I’m enjoying being back in the Midlands (apart from the price of beer) and can’t see myself coming North again for some time. It’s just too easy here! So relaxing. When I want to punish myself again, I’ll come back up. I’d got used to doing tough journeys up North and accepted it as the norm. Down here I can spend a day boating and cover a fair distance. It’s relaxing and I have some energy left in me. And I’d forgotten just how nice it is here too 😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
