  1. If you are still doing this on your original timeframe, then both of those will be a non issue by that time.
  2. We came up Hatton on Sunday, no flies present
  3. But he is not going to be able to go the Trent route in the next 2 to 3 weeks, so over the Pennines is really the only practical route. Or go the simple way and put it on a truck if time is short.
  4. I also had a problem raising Upper Lode a couple of years ago, called on VHF, no response, called on telephone, no response. As we were going down and there is a pontoon, moored up and my wife walked to the lock, and eventually found the lock keeper, I think he was fixing his car or something!
  5. Nah, more spreadsheet, better plan, less locks 😀
  6. I too am rather disappointed that this in not a spreadsheet issue, been brushing up my skills updating my BCN Challenge spreadsheet.

  9. You are supposed to get the boat repainted after the challenge, not before! Anyway our entry is also in 🙂

  13. Me neither! Glad you enjoyed it, and without wanting to just state the obvious, whilst the trip boats do get a rock on, if you are well tied to the bollards with your ropes tight then you should not move.
  14. Don’t know about the shower thing, but I would not have said that Lapworth is that bad, Cambrian Wharf is a slow one and slower than Lapworth, which is mad given where it is you would think it would have a very good flow. Off the top of my head I would say that Lower Hayford has to be a contender for slowest.
