Earlier today as we were cruising the Staffs & Worcs near Giggetty we came across a "Lets Fish" session for children.
It seemed to a CRT official event as there were CRT signs and banners. It appeared to be supervised by people in sweatshirts bearing CRT logos.
But clearly these people had received no training whatsoever regarding boats. The young fishers didn't seem to know that they would need to move their rods on our approach.
There were two fishing from the lock landing moorings who were annoyed and surprised when we asked them to move as we needed to drop crew off.
All of this I guess is financed by CRT?
There is a sunken boat completely blocking the canal at bridge 17 on the Paddington arm.
CRT say that an attempt to refloat it will made tomorrow Tuesday
When we moored at Cropredy marina I was told that the channel running between the two parts of the marina was an overflow from the reservoir.

We have a portable satellite TV setup that we don't need. I'm not sure why we bought it as we never watch TV on the boat!
Free for collection from South Gloucestershire or Droitwich marina.
