March Plans

Plans for a trip in March are well advanced.

Nb Eos
We are being joined by a friend on Sunday and on Monday will make our way down the Tardebigge flight of locks.

This will be a welcome sight towards the end of the first day after 30+ locks.

On Tuesday we leave the Worcester and Birmingham canal for the new Droitwich link. Wednesday we will make our way round to Worcester via the River Severn. Thursday is the start of the journey back to Alvechurch and should get as far as Tibberton. Friday will get us back to the bottom of the Tardebigge flight, ready to tackle them on Saturday to arrive back at the boatyard by Saturday evening. Hopefully in time to watch Saints who are live on the TV playing Blackpool.

As usual I expect the plans to change, but hopefully – just for once – not to drastically.
