Back out and on the move again  ,last night moored just out side Bollington This area is known as Happy Valley I haven't found out why yet , I did read in a local information centre that when this area was full of mills that the workers were better treated than in the cities , could that be the answer or is there a more modern reason ? I shall try to find out more .Moving on today through Macclesfield we will see if we can get a mooring this time so we can visit the town.

Doing a bit of gardening while moored in the marina

Mr heron sat on the end of the pontoon waiting for a fish to come along 

Autumn is here 

This is what could happen if your not carefull ,it is sat on the bottom of the canal which shows how deep they are ,it is said if you fall in the first thing to do is stand up and see who is watching 

Canal side mill in Marple

Lovely views across the Goyt valley
