Wednesday 15th December



 Moved a couple of miles and moored for the night at Campbell Park. Got up Thursday and moved again. Now moored at Fenny Stratford for a day or two. Stock up with xmas shopping etc. Pick up gas and coal.

 Still at Gifford. Being near a waterpoint, taking the opportunity to clear the laundry basket.

Probably move tomorrow if the weather improves.

Monday 6th December

 A weekend of storms and iced in again on Sunday.

The ice had cleared by Monday, so managed to move on for water. 

Headed for Giffard Park with the Canal water level down by a foot. Enroute, both banks were showing silt, so any chance of mooring or pulling in with a fouled prop would be a no no.

This section has had no dredging whatsoever for 20 years that I know of, could be possibly longer. CRT when questioned on the subject just ignore.

Still, the CEO and his directors seem happy enough to pocket their six figure salaries and perks. Bring back BW and the option of accountability.

Tuesday 30th November

 Moved to Bradwell. Not far, but can get the dog clipped before xmas.

Very bad depth on this stretch of canal. Lack of rain keeping the water low, and lack of dredging by Canal and River Trust making things 10 times worse. I really wish the management team for this area would either get their act together or sod off.
