Very pleased to finish this marathon move from Ormskirk too Napton, with a months gap in the middle waiting for Bosley to open.
Two breakdowns, thank you to River Canal Rescue for sorting both and getting me moving promptly.
Thank you to all the volunteers at the locks in Marple, Bosley and Calcutt Canal & River Trust Volunteers
And thank you to my crew Andrea Dickinson-Lawson, Juls Lewis-Mills and Duncan Faulkner, without you it would be less fun.
Last thank you to Canal & River Trust who other than a wait at Bosley due to low water kept the locks open and functioning all the way.
