Life on the Canal

(Edited)

Walking along the Erewash Canal and surrounding area, you meet some interesting people.

This is my entry to the #monomad challenge.

Most people are quite happy to stop and chat or wave, whether they are cycling or passing by on one of the boats.

There's a lot of industrial history on the canal surrounded by nature. Hopefully, we have got past the icy pond stage!

Canal walks are a favourite place of mine as they are flat and accessible. It's a perfect place when you are getting on a bit!

I guess England doesn't get cold enough for outdoor skating ponds...
Are those people sitting on a waterlogged boat??

Yes, people are odd like that. 😁

It gets cold here, but I wouldn't fancy my chances on a frozen pond. I'd have to learn how to skate first. 😁

You couldn’t be more right in what you’ve mentioned about the canals. It’s why we love it. There’s a good chance we will be passing by that way in late may early June. We should give you a shout so we can meet up for a hive coffee meet up!

Yes, that would be good! Although, I'm travelling down south in May. Hopefully, our paths will cross.
