Hi

I walked into Middlewich from Rudheath yesterday along the canal. A really beautiful summer's day.

There were lots of boats on the canal and as we passed them ( or they passed us ) we wondered if there were any "catters" in them heading for the Festival.

Also there were boats moored along the route and we did stop and ask at one or two if they were catters and heading for the festival. Sadly the ones we talked to weren't.

Perhaps boaters should think of having some kind of recognition so that people like us could say hello etc. Or maybe even post the boat names here ???

Just a thought.

We will repeat the exercise over the week ahead and we hope to take in some of the folk sessions.

The weather is forecast to be good so I wish everyone a great time and hope that the festival is very successful.

See you there..
