Two Weeks To Holidays

August 9th, 2008 No comments

Well its only 2 weeks until we set off on our 2 week Canal cruising holiday, we are starting out at Preston Brook on the Trent and Mersey Canal and off round the 4 counties ring with a little detour along the Caldon Canal.

We are hiring a boat called “Beeston Castle” from Claymoore Navigation, followed this boat up the Shropshire Union Canal towards Chester last year so we are reasonably sure what we are getting, here is the layout.

It’s much better than the layout of last years boat “Summer Wine” as you don’t have to squeeze past the bed to get to the kitchen.

I’m currently planning the overnight stops, all near to pubs of course and I think we might have a few things to say about the ones we visit. One place thats a definate stop is the Shropie Fly at Audlem.
