Blog Posts following specific cruises on the canals

Escape from the rain, by train, for a trip to Surrey. Too much eating and drinking with friends and relatives.

A day out in Leek, foul weather along the Caldon, fretting about fuel and mooring up for a trip home.

Finally setting out on our first real cruise in "Parting Shot" starting with a couple of weeks up to Leek.

An intended winter round trip to Whilton Marina cut short when we decided to leave South Downs there for brokerage.

Back aboard, autumn sunshine, cruising in the dark and the end of our voyage to move into a new house.

The weather turns, heralded by "Storm Callum", a steady run to Rugby and return to Purley to collect the car.
