Obviously you could not see the link piccy of Earnest on one of it's many visits to the Great Northern Basin, top of the Nottingham Canal on your Dis-Organiser Mark Five Gooseberry. Being a member of the AWCC affiliated Cutweb Cruising Club, meant that I could claim my free 2 weeks with the AWCC affiliated Erewash Canal Preservation and Development Association, in their excellent moorings in the Great Northern Basin. ..and yes I have been to the present "end" of the connected Cromford Canal. While you are in the vicinity, try doing some intrepid stuff, like going up the Derwent at Derwent Mouth, carrying on up the Trent under Trent Bridge, carrying on up the Trent under Cavendish Bridge and getting into the bottom lock of the Grantham Canal. :-) ps I have now finally been through Havengore Bridge ;-) http://www.tuesdaynightclub.co.uk/Stuffimages/Img_4322.jpg ...but as Mr T rightly boasted...I have NOT been up Hedsor Water, behind Cookham Lock, on the Thames, and certainly not in barge :-) -- Neil Arlidge NB Earnest / Barge Maurice A (in the pipeline) TNC...Gorn west... http://www.tuesdaynightclub.co.uk/tour.html
