Finding New Locations for Maps

We are nearly at 2000 members of our Facebook Group, can I make a request, please visit one of the maps for an area you know well and find what is missing?

I need to find Visitor Mooring, Chandleries, Boat Yards, Water and Pump Out points, Pubs, Restaurants, Cafes, and any place of interest you would recommend. If each of us found 1 extra place that would double what we have already 🙂

See https://floydtilla.co.uk/canal-river-maps/

Don’t forget we also have the everything map https://floydtilla.co.uk/they-everything-map/ were you can find all the place we have so far, but it loads a little slower.

Thanks

David Floyd

Boat work and around and about in Droitwich

We have come up to the boat for a few days, I have some boat work to complete, we are fitting a battery monitor, but more on that in a later post as I also wanted to touch up the paint from the few scrapes we have had over the summer.

While I have worked on the boat Sonia and Mary have been on a trip by train to Birmingham New Street Station and the Bull Ring Shopping centre, for both of them on the train was about £12.50 off peak return, much simpler than driving and trying to find parking.

They also tried the Droitwich Lido an open air pool, which is a rarity these days, when I was young we had one in Camberley, but it was very run down and soon closed, but it seems the Droitwich Lido is a bit of a find, very clean and tidy, I am sure we will be back and bringing the grand kids.

My thanks also goes to the very helpful Facebook group “Droitwich Spa Marina Friendly Forum“. A quick post as I needed a hole cutter, and within the hour I had two offers of one on loan. Thanks to the owners of NB Cedrik, it was a tool my wife was very pleased I did not have to buy.
