Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all!

Lets hope the towpaths can be a bit less soggy in 2013.

Junctions (19) : Droitwich

Where the Droitwich Barge & Junction Canals meet. Remember to keep left as the river Salwarpe is also here and there is a weir just ahead!

Boat water point

At Stratford.

Stratford ice (cream)

I went down to Stratford-upon-Avon yesterday (yet again) and very cold it was there too. The air temperature was below zero all day and the canal was frozen as you can imagine. No surprise that the ice cream barge was closed! You can see some more of my photos from yesterday here.

Shrewley Tunnel

On the Grand Union near Hatton and under Shrewley.
