mark99 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) Found this old photo we took on our hiring days. Quite a decent reflection. You can tell it's Wales Edited January 10, 2014 by mark99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junior Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 I didn't see the second picture at first and was about to make a sarcastic comment saying "why, is there a sheep hidden somewhere?". Then I saw the second photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul C Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 1st pic looks like the long rural section in between Whitchurch and Ellesmere. 2nd pic looks like the end of the dragstrip section near Prees junction. Ummm, I mean the long, straight, wide section where one can apply a little more throttle than normal, whilst still remaining below 4mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely still water in the 1st one I think the second is StMartins Moor - just up from New Marton locks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RLWP Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 I'd love to find more photos of Tawny Owl when she was still on hire Osprey is a similar age, probably a bit younger Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RLWP Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 What happened to the gangplank? It will be at the back with the other one. If you begin to notice hire boats, the equipment is usually all over the place Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harve90 Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Do you know why two sheep are better than one ? One to kiss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 Lovely still water in the 1st one I think the second is StMartins Moor - just up from New Marton locks I wonder how long the sheep remained there. There are notices on the fence advising boaters that the area is "private" and banning mooring. Other notices showing arrows and pointing out that the visitor moorings are X metres/yards along. Obviously a boater friendly place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty40s Posted January 10, 2014 Report Share Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) Nice pics Mark, were you moored up or cruising?? Ocasionally I just drift to a stop to preserve the reflections, other times I just keep cruising. Two from last weeks boat move (otherwise known as The Day It Didn't Rain!!)
