We're currently in #Cheshire in our #cottage fronting the #Bridgewater #Canal Just decided I needed a photograph to prove it when nb Vulcan passed by. Given the number of solar panels I thought it might be a #liveaboard but a few moments research revealed this website: https://www.vulcanowners.co.uk/ which revealed it used to belong to the Challenger fleet. I recall the days when they were rivals to OwnerShips. Both companies RRare now defunct.

We'd emailed the wonderful Liam of https://www.midlandsandcoast.co.uk/ to try to sort out a #coal delivery to #ourplace which fronts the #towpath of the #Bridgewater #Canal. I took a photo of his #boat last time we got #fuel from him. It's based the same distance on one side of #PrestonBrook #bridge as we are the other. This time I needed an emergency supply. He gave me a bag, lent me a barrow to carry it home and said he'd invoice me when he delivered all we have room to store. As I collected the fuel the sun came out to reveal The Midlands & Coast Canal Carriers Ltd yard in all its glory.
