THE ROCHDALE CANAL was closed on the 7th May between locks 12 and 14.

We have always purchased a gold licence, writes Stewart Downs.

THIS IS SOMETHING WE MISSED whilst away cruising:

A RECORD INDEED for last Wednesday we met four boats on the move on the canal!

HAVING REACHED THE TOP END of the Lancaster Canal (pictured) I can most definitely tell that the waterway is not easy for narrowboats.

SO HERE WE ARE ON THE Lancaster Canal at last.

FRESH FIELDS INDEED and I had forgotten that the Lancaster is a broad canal, very wide so easy bridges for navigating.

It ain't looking good at all with a total of 33 stoppages in the space of the three weeks of Friday to Friday since the season began.

ONCE AGAIN THE INVASIVE WEED pennywort is taking over the Soar navigation.

SHIRLEY DRAW BRIDGE on the North Stratford Canal has been struck by a vehicle.

Boaters get the blame for lack of water
