About Us

My photo
In 1977 we hired our first narrowboat from Anglo Welsh at Market Harborough.From that moment our destiny was set. In 2006 we finally purchased our own brand new 57' narrowboat which we named 'Free Spirit'. Our aim is to travel the length and breadth of all the navigable rivers and canals of the UK. This will be our story as it unfolds.

Rock fall at Woodseaves Cutting

 Wow.What a landslide As we approached on tick over it became clear just how bad it had been and this after BW had cleared most of the debris away. The cutting itself looks very unstable with small mud slides in several places along the mile stretch. How long before more of the bank comes down and will it mean the end of this section of the Shroppie? Will we only be able to go so far in both directions before having to wind round??I do hope not!  

Looking up.


Layers of clay. Makes you think of slate.



Looking back



On the approach
