Glad to see there's some water back in the Macc. Did the T&M and the Caldon that last glorious week in October with concertina accompianment through the Harecastle. Let us know which pubs will be 'taken over' en route if a 'landlubber' is welcome

Enjoy yourselves, I hope you don't get any stoppages or a freeze-in, and at these time of year, I hope you get nothing round the blades - even with thick rubber gloves on (and a weedhatch), it's painful clearing the prop in freezing water.

Well, New Year boating actually. We are static for Christmas, but a couple of boat loads of music will besetting off on Sundayish for a week. Wheelock to Hardings Wood along the Trent and Mersey, then along the Macclesfield to Bollington-ish for New Year's Eve. Big music session New year's Day, then drift back before the stoppages bite on Monday Jan 5. Any Mudcat boaters in the region, join the flotilla. Music nights will be had along the way.
