Which brings me to an interesting point - well, interesting to me anyway :-))>> I've a BW 'water point' key, plus a pair of paddle winch handles ... and this year, although I've not yet needed anything else (at least not so far - on the K&A) I'll finally be heading *Norf of the Thames*, passport, immunisation certificates and phrase books in hand, and I'm rather concerned that perhaps I might need some additional keys, etc. As I'm genetically predisposed to getting *things* before they become necessary (ask Noelle about this, I've been collecting stuff 'just in case....' for all of the 36 years or so that we've been married ..lol..) I'm wondering if there is anything else which I ought to be buying :-))>> Cheers, Trevor [nb.noneedtoaskabouttheboozecosthatissortedalready] Hi Trevor All I could add to your inventory would be a handcuff key (Used to unlock the anti vandal devices on locks and bridges ooop North) If you plan to do the Rochdale Canal, you will also need a handspike for the locks near Sowerby Bridge and Eastwards.
