Update on Chi-Cheemaun

We have spent some time on our mooring at Otherton Boat Haven doing some much needed painting .We also had to have our cat jack to the vets at 16 years old he was not in good health and it was hard for us to have to have him put to sleep so now we are down to two cats . All being well we will go cruising again at the end of August and will have more news for our blog and pictures of us cruising in the sunshine (fingers crossed) .

RETURN OF CHI-CHEEMAUN

We have returned to our mooring at Otherton Boat Haven . We will now be able to catch up with all the news and post and plan our next cruise. But i think we will wait untill the children have gone back to school and the canal is less busy.

A nice day at Tixal Wide

A nice sunny day we cruised from Rugeley to Tixal Wide after filling up with water diesel and gas . When will the price stop going up and will we be able to cruise in future .Tomorrow we will cruise to Radford Bank for a good carvery.

Chi-Cheemaun cruises again

Chi-Cheemaun has cruised again starting from Fazeley we have cruised to Fradley Junction where we turned left onto the Trent and Mersey canal . We have arrived at Handsacre after 7 1/2 hours cruising and the good news is the chippy is just as good.

Waterways have been again

We arrived and this sign said 7 days and we moored up but the men from waterways came and changed the sign . So does this mean that the 7 days have been lost or have i still got whats left of my 7 days . OR WAS IT ME SEEING THINGS no ime not that drunk yet.

A short days cruising

We have cruised from Polsworth to Fazeley near Tamworth and other than a heavy shower at Glascote locks the weather was good.

This is a view of a working boat moored at the Three Tuns pub where it looks as if the ale was flowing quite well.

Chi-Cheemaun cruise

Hi fellow boaters Chi-Cheemaun has cruised from Hawksbury to Polesworth and down Atherstone locks and it did not rain.I think thats a first for us to have such a good run down the locks.

Tomorrow if its not raining we will continue our trip to Fazeley junction.
