GUELROSE is on the move again!!

Would you believe it. GUELROSE has not moved since September last year, and as soon as we set off, it starts to rain. It has not rained in Hopwas for the last couple of months so why today?

Anyway, we are off out for 6 days, meeting up with some friends on the Ashby Canal in a couple of day boats! You will be sure to recognize us as we will all be wearing the same T-shirts!

A simple cruise today, Glascote Locks, no queues for a change, then on to moor in the countryside between Polesworth and Bradley Green, and only 65 metres away for a geocache!!

Tomorrow, it is Atherstone Locks, then on Friday it is onto the Ashby Canal and meet our friends on Saturday morning before doing it all again in reverse.

Then it is back home for a couple of days before the lads and I take on the BCN Challenge! We have not done it since 1999 and the format has changed somewhat, but, never mind, discounting me the average age of the crew is 34 so they can work all the 65 locks on the first day, I'll co-ordinate!!
