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.

@mlanger@mastodon.world @PKYo@poweredbygay.social Bobbing Boat doesn't tell the whole story of #UK #canal #boat #licencing. It's not just length, there are different rates for private boats and hire boats. And I forget the arrangements for continuously cruising #liveaboard #boaters. I recall that the boats I owned a 1/12th shared in were classed as a #hireboat, although, typically, such boats cruised for about 48 weeks a year, while a typical holiday hire boat only cruises about 36 weeks a year, which is why I can understand the thought that length should not be the sole criteria. It's different again on the #NorfolkBroads. Licencing is on the basis of area (length x beam) and there are multiple classes with the biggest discounts for #yachts, smaller ones for auxiliary yachts, electric powered craft and so on. Not to mention different rates for hire boats. And just don't ask about the UK's Boat Safety Scheme! #BSS

Some pictures from our stroll this afternoon. I’ve added the hashtag silentsunday, but it’s a lie, as it’s also half term so some of the walk was anything but quiet. #photography #walking #nature #canal #silentsunday

My bike and I reflected in the Rochdale Canal in Miles Platting, East Manchester, near where a scene in A Taste of Honey was filmed. #canal #RochdaleCanal #Manchester #reflections #ATasteofHoney #wintersun

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.

Got to #Canalside #Cottages, #PrestonBrook yesterday to discover access was in the closed section of #Chester #Road. Not to worry! You can't #park in the #canal. We parked, as usual, on a nearby road.
