That was a bit of a fight at the beginning, Pat, well done, that man! Two lovely old pubs at the end, it is lovely to see a bit of old England via your vlogs!

Great video. We are still st Brinklow and its a fab marina, but a mare when its windy! Loved the tour of the old canal, we must go and moor in newbold instead of chuggjng onto Hillmorton! Will defo go and take a look sometime. Which map/app did you use that you could see the dotted line where it went along with your location please? Kerry and colin - NB time to pootle x

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

Hi Kerry, most marinas are a bit windy but Brinklow is particularly so! Definitely worth a stop at Newbold, if you look closely there are a couple of nice walks. We used Open Canal Map to see where the loops are. Hope you manage to get out cruising soon, course you can go the other way now!! Thanks for watching and commenting 😊

[@kerrysharpe40]

Ah great thankyou. All the best x

[@kerrysharpe40]

We are at Newbold! Did the wall through the church grounds and saw the tunnel etc.. thankyou so much, would not have done that without having seen your video. (Also had chips from Newbold chippy - yummy!), sat on the stern with the sun going down - perfect. Thanks again x

[@ournarrowboatquest4894]

@@kerrysharpe40 the chippy is excellent! Glad you enjoyed it😊
