It occurred to me that this might be an ideal time to demonstrate
solidarity among <<all>> canal users - perhaps with a convoy including
carnival style floats prepared by
Boaters
Fishpersons
Cyclists
Walkers
Nature lovers
But I suppose some of these folk will be overjoyed if BW default on
maintenance and create navigational issues because that will arguably
improve enjoyment for several sets of canal users.
The most perverse situation to my mind is all the cash being put
forward to restore and re-open canals and yet our masters can't manage
the ones we've got already. Surely restoration needs to be sidelined
while money is used for preservation.
And as for the wide gauge Midland link from Leamington to Startford . .
. . well really . . . what is that all about ?
