Hurray I successfully bought a winter mooring

After an early look this morning and then finding eventually at 10am that the website wouldn't be updated untill 3.30 (then 4pm, then 4.30), I travelled to Goldstone Wharf on a gloriously sunny day (rain all day yesterday?, was I dreaming?). I finally bought a winter mooring on the Llangollen Canal for this winter. Ex neighbours and boating friends HERE I COME!!!

Welcome to my blog

Have boated on the main system for 13 years now, cruising all summer. I spent Oct 07 to Oct 08 on the River Great Ouse, overwintering at Ely Marina then spending the summer thoroughly exploring the 'Far East'. Returned to canals for winter 08/09, where I had a linear winter mooring in Braunston.

In April 09 pottered on Oxford to Lower Heyford, before going to Crick Show. After show I cruised to Sawley then on Trent to Torksey and Boston (lovely). Returned to Sawley then on T&M to Leek & Caldon, before continuing north to moor on Rufford Branch for winter 09/10.

Cruise 2010 was to Liverpool, Lancaster, but Leeds cancelled due to lack of water so went to Chester then up Heartbreak Hill and spent August on the Macclesfield/Peak Forest then via Stoke on Trent to Shroppie and a winter on the Llangollen at Ellesmere.

2011 went on the Montgomery, back on Llangollen then eventually to Wigan and Leeds before going down the Huddersfield Narrow thru Standedge Tunnel - after that a much needed re-paint in the autumn by Willow Boatpainting at Swanley Marina on the Llangollen, staying for winter.

2012 went slowly on Llangollen then via Shroppie, Great Haywood and Fazeley junctions and across to Stratford on Avon before doing Avon Ring. Then down to Braunston for the winter

2013 - I hope to go up the Ashby, then down GU to Thames, River Wey and back on Thames to Oxford.
