Not long to go...

In a couple of weeks or so our three wise men will be setting off on their epic voyage into the unknown under the watchful eye of Saint Boddington (Saint Boddington is the patron saint of beer) and as our adventurers set off. What will they be thinking?

Where's the nearest pub?

Where's the nearest Indian restaurant?

Where's the nearest chippy?

Can we get football on the tele?

Where do we stop for a BBQ?

I'm hungry

I'm thirsty

Truth is none of these apply because the mutual feeling is that none of them really matters.

This holiday is about enjoyment and an appreciation of the waterway system that the nation has at its disposal helps us to relax and prepare to slow down

The old adage that a canal holiday is the fastest way to slow down rings true but it doesn't work for everyone. We see examples of that on a daily basis and it doesn't matter, not to us

Look at the engineering, the heritage the fantastic countryside that's all around you

one of Trev's pictures from 2010 sums it up really

Britain's amazing unspoilt heritage
