This week we head into Cheshire to the peaceful surroundings of Minshull
Vernon. Situated alongside the Shropshire Union Canal it offers the usual opportunities for both walking
and fishing while shopping is available in nearby Crewe or Winsford. The Middlewich Folk and Boat
Festival takes place over the weekend and is celebrating its 20th
Anniversary. There will be a narrowboat rally as well as music and street
theatre with jugglers, parades through the town, stalls, music, Morris
dancing and brass bands all at various locations in the area. While they are
in the party mood, your Marshals would like you to join them for a Barbeque
on Saturday evening (weather permitting) Hopefully we will be in the party mood
following an England win against Algeria on Friday evening.
