What Floats Your boat?


With the warm weather finally arriving, the activity on the canals have increased. Nottingham city centre has a canal running by it and gets quite busy in the summer months. A number of canalside apartments & bars have sprung up in Nottingham, and as this photo shows two narrowboat owners have stopped off for a quick one. The actor Timothy West is a keen user of the canals and presently narrates a series on ITV called Water World, which is dedicated to life on the canals in the Midlands.

    Those two narrowboats are owned by the City Council (Youth & Community I think) and are at their regular moorings. They take city kids for trips through Trent Lock (Long Eaton) and down the Soar towards Leicester.
