Boaters Wedding.

On the roof of a boat someone had thoughtfully painted a board with ‘Congratulations to  the happy couple John and Nicki’.

Some boaters had a really laid back approach to the proceedings! All the boats were splendidly decorated with colourful balloons and bunting.

Since our last visit here the canal seemed to be a much brighter place with flowers across the bridges and some very good visitor moorings had been created.

After the wedding the happy couple set off on their boat ahead of a whole flotilla of about fifteen boats. Everyone successfully squeezed through the narrow bit avoiding the Water Bus and trip boats.

The ‘Master of Ceremony’s conducted all the boats into position for a grand photo opportunity.
