New Year -- New Start

This is my first posting on my new blog! Happy new year to all readers and Thanks for looking at my site. I am making a new start this year and going continuous cruiser so that I can see as much of the system as I want without having to think about getting back to a mooring for the winter. Last year i cruised a long circuit around the north of the system up round the Leeds Liverpool canal. I was accompanied on my trip by my good friends Mike and Lesley on N.B Beulah May. I really enjoyed the trip, but we had booked moorings here in Shardlow for October and although we took our time on the trip (about 3 months) there was always that deadline looming to be back for.
Hopefully this year I can continue exploring during the winter, stoppages allowing! We are hoping to explore more of the system this year including the stratford, Llangollen, and shroppie canals. I am hoping to then carry on north and try and get onto the Lancaster canal. Well thats all for my first post! hope it works as I am completely new to this blogging idea.
