Moving day - onto the Shropshire Union canal; we're currently moored at the pretty village of Brewood (pronounced - Brood). The Shroppie Shelf here is significant!

Canal with a tree reflected in the water, with a narrowboat moored in the distance mid-right hand side

Our Christmas plans have somewhat been changed due to Andy's illness; no regrets as he's getting better and this is really a beautiful spot. Moored near the village of Kinver with its pubs, shops and really good butchers, it could be a great deal worse

Heavy wooden bench seat

This magnificent bench has recently been installed at Goose Beach (our name for it) just above The Hyde lock on the Staffs & Worcs canal. In memory of Alan Trevis Smith M.B.E. for his dedication to the canal.

Where we are now; possibly at one of our favourite places on the Staffordshire & Worcestershire canal, just north of Hyde lock. Major shout out to a CRT chap who helped us out big time at Kinver Services.

Stone by the side of the canal with Worcestershire engraved on the left, and Staffordshire on the right.

On the Staffordshire & Worcestershire canal - still just in Worcestershire by about 50 metres! Really don’t need a degree in Geography to work it out
