http://canaltravel.blogspot.com/2008/07/ropey-rough-rochdale-awful-assaulting.html
These travelogs are written to help you in navigating a new waterway. Thursday, 31 July 2008. THE ROPEY ROUGH ROCHDALE and AWFUL ASSAULTING ASHTON? Going ‘Up North’ this season? Will you have to pass through The Rochdale 9 and The Ashton Canal? Worried, concerned, is it hard, is there violence threatened? Relax, Mr David has just completed the journey early in the season in order to pin-point the pitfalls. Lock 92, Dukes Lock. This appears to have a very old chamber built with large stone blocks and ...

Narrowboat Mr David: Rode Heath, Trent and Mersey Canal
http://narrowboatmrdavid.blogspot.com/2015/04/rode-heath-trent-and-mersey-canal.html
Life aboard a Narrowboat - and making greetings cards. Want to Buy a Card? Waterways Cards For Sale. Wednesday, 22 April 2015. Rode Heath, Trent and Mersey Canal. Sunrise by Church Lawton. A quick run into Rode Heath, just 1 1/4 miles and 6 locks. I took the bus into Nantwich for a bit of retail therapy. It was fun criss crossing the canal on the way there and back. A white card blank, red dotty paper, strawberry backing paper, a tag made with die-cut ovals, some flowers and a red gingham bow.

Life aboard a Narrowboat - and making greetings cards. Want to Buy a Card? Waterways Cards For Sale. Tuesday, 9 September 2014. Gas Street Basin, BCN. A full moon at 0530 when we set off.

Life aboard a Narrowboat - and making greetings cards. Want to Buy a Card? Waterways Cards For Sale. Sunday, 19 April 2015. Red Bull Basin, Trent and Mersey (Macclesfield Branch). Love the motto: Keeping people, nature and history connected. Nothing about water, boats, canals! The washing machine has been going all day! The sentiment, which I did on the computer was matted onto pink card and the whole panel stuck onto a pink card blank. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). BUY MY CARDS HERE.

Narrowboat Mr David: Red Bull Basin, Macclesfield Canal
http://narrowboatmrdavid.blogspot.com/2015/04/red-bull-basin-macclesfield-canal.html
Life aboard a Narrowboat - and making greetings cards. Want to Buy a Card? Waterways Cards For Sale. Monday, 20 April 2015. Red Bull Basin, Macclesfield Canal. The washing machine is still going. Sheets, towels, coats, anything I can find. A kind, fellow moorer lent us a key to get out of the compound so that I could walk around to Tesco to get some food. Last winter a friend who walked her dog past the boats lost it when it fell into the canal and drowned. So this is the sympathy card I made for her.

Canal Travelogs: NUDGING THE NENE
http://canaltravel.blogspot.com/2008/08/nudging-nene.html
These travelogs are written to help you in navigating a new waterway. Thursday, 14 August 2008. Sit back, you relax, we will do the hard work. We had been told that sixteen boats had already gone down to Northampton, panic in the boat, what had happened to the quiet Nene where many fear to lock. Actually the message had got garbled in the pipeline. Vandals had emptied Pound 16 on the night before and it had taken BW several hours to water down through all the locks. The anti-vandal security lock is an Ab...

Kennet and Avon Canal. 8221; And the merry children will gladly climb out without a thought of jumping on your boat or practicing their foul language. On our journey back we had Good Samaritans who were having breakfast by the lock, they did all the locking for us. The K&A is full of surprises, mostly good ones. You now have a number of heavy locks. Tyle Mill lock and swing bridge are now much easier as the swin...
