Quickest 10mins watching a video I've spent in a while... didn't want it to end... ;-) Brilliant Paul.! Its great seeing the actual effort going into making this all happen... 💪💪💪👋👋😎😄

[@LHCRT]

Thank You, most encouraging. Always hard to know how long to make it, what to put in or leave out, and how to make it interesting but entertaining! (Paul)

@@LHCRT Well, through skill and judgement you achieved all the above comfortably, I'd say... 😀 looking forward to the next one.!

[@TheByard]

That section looks great with the lift bridge adding some drama to the scene. Maybe the paths are due a rename as the only horse towed barge I've seen is near Stroud. I suggest TOE PATH. Had I lived in the UK I would volunteer as I'm sure having worked in construction from 1960 until 2016 maybe something I've learnt would come in handy. Alas the canal work I've done, was a road tunnel under the Suez Canal and the odd swim across between ship convoys.

Such an achievement xx

[@johnarnell4241]

Will you be stocking with any fish plants etc or do you just let it happen naturally?

[@LHCRT]

The plants will happen naturally. Fish will move in once it's connected to the rest network. We wouldn't pay to stock it with fish as all our resources are needed on the construction.

HS2 - I hope you now, you don’t have to give the money back 😏

[@LHCRT]

A lot of journalists don’t seem to know where Birmingham ends and Staffordshire begins

[@bikepackingadventure7913]

@@LHCRT Birmingham city centre, a bit pointless it going any further really?

[@LHCRT]

It will join up with the existing railway line at Handsacre, so it will have an ongoing destination north, but much slower after Handsacre. 🤷‍♀️
