Announcing Canal Holiday 2013

Caldon Canal - Here we come!

It's now January 2013 and here we are planning our next adventure. We know where we're going but not sure yet when or with what company

Last years epic trip that saw us embark on a two week cruise in May, featured in this 'Blog', is not going to be repeated as funds are suffering a bit (same for most folk methinks)

We must resign ourselves to having just a one week trip and much as we liked the experience with 'Cheshire Cat Narrowboat Holidays' we recognise that we cannot use that excellent firm this time. Why not? Well the aim is to visit and cruise the Caldon Canal and that cannot be done in a week from the Cheshire Cat base near Audlem

We know where we are going but at the present time we do not know our starting point. There are some hire boat firms not too far from the Caldon and so in the coming weeks it is our aim to visit at least two of these to check on availability, suitability and cost

this was the design for our handout card in 2012
 
this is probably the design for our handout card 2013

Why do we handout these cards? simple really, we just want to share our experience with folk along the way and promoting the 'Blog' might help to promote the canals - so it's a worthwhile exercise
