Many thanks for all the replies which I'll work through. Just for the 
record this is far from a first time trip, Dad started us on the cut in 
the 50s up Llangollen (almost in the wake of Cressy) and I have vivid 
memories of Leicester just being a carpet of old tires, wood and dead 
fish from one side to the other - how nice to see it now!
Whilst father has been in his 90s he's done the Caldon, Huddersfield 
right through, 1/2 Leicester ring and the Avon ring and I've rung up 
about 40 weeks hire over the years but never got as far south as the K 
& A (other than seeing the end at Reading).
Thanks again,
John
