Good Morning Early Birds!

Tuesday. No cloud but lots of frost again. It's going to be another nice day.

Tomorrow, when I could really use a nice day it's going to rain. We have the Heritage Lottery Fund people visiting to have a look at progress on the canal. We will have Perseverance there to give some council bods a ride, it's good to have them on side, they are as enthusiastic as we are and are very involved in the restoration. I'm the skipper, so it's wet weather gear for me!

Out to lunch today. RAFA. At the Forcester George. Always a good event.

Have a happy day everyone.

Morning 158. That's not true at all! The whole idea of the restoration is to allow boats to go from Saul Junction to Lechlade on the Thames. The canal will use the same bridge under the M5 as the River Frome. It's wide enough for us to move the river over a bit and put the canal in alongside it, but a wee bit higher. It will take narrowboats and some cruisers with no trouble at all. cotswoldcansls.com will take you to the website and you can see for yourself. :o} "

Found quite a bit of info on the website but unfortunately nothing about headroom under the M5, are you able to give me a more direct link?

Morning wendi xxx Quite a few of mine are double yolkers too.

The sun is up and burning the frost off nicely.

Not at the moment 158. Where are you? If it's possible for you to come to the Visitor Centre at Saul Junction, Or the one in Stroud you will be able to find out. I can meet you at either if you wish.

Thank you, I'll try and call in at one of the centres at some time.

[waterboatman]

I take it you're local?

Time to make a move. Have a happy day everyone. :o}
