  • This is a short video of my return journey along the Trent And Mersey Canal from Burton-Upon-Trent to Fradley Junction and the start of the Coventry Canal. As autumn turned to winter, I decided to return to the Oxford Canal, the northern section where I hope to spend the winter months and where there seem to be few, if any winter stoppages or restrictions by the CRT, at least at the present time. I had been warned by several other boaters that the Trent is subject to flooding through the winter, which has proved to be correct. As I upload this video there are large areas throughout the country that are experiencing severe flooding, the River Trent being one of them.

    Yes, I saw that some poor peoples canal boat had come away from the moorings, ending up capsized, so sad. Thanks for another lovely journey along the waterway. Happy New Year 🎉

      Thanks for the lovely comment. It seems the worst of the flooding is over and hopefully, those affected can start getting their lives back together. Happy New Year to you I hope it brings all you wish for.

    Another story: We travelled in a convoy of 3 through the river section you passed to Alrewas where just after the lock is a water point. 2 didn’t need water but our good friend Andy did so we left him there & continued on to Fradley. We then got a call from him he couldn’t start his engine. He had let his diesel tank get so low it sucked in the sediment at the bottom & could he have a tow. Using my boat I went back through 5 locks, the river section again and back to him where he was hitched up to me and taken on to Fradley. Needless to say I was not best pleased with him 😂🦆💕

      Your right Sue. It’s interesting the Pub is known as the Mucky Duck and the cafe by the service point is called the Laughing Duck both are well worth a visit. 🤔😃👍
