Hi All, we are Carol Gerry and Misty the cat, travelling the canals of Great Britain onboard Narrowboat TOMMi.

Not a bad start to 2025 cruising. 4 new waterways done Peak Forrest, Ashton, Rochdale, and Calder and Hebble. TOMMi now in a marina for a bit of TLC and our bodies are a little broken and ready for the same 😂 we hope to do Rippon later in the year. #lockontommi #boatsthattweet

[LockOnTOMMi @LockOnTOMMi]

Rochdale compete, Calder and Henley complete headed back to Bluewater Marina for essential maintenance 😀 looking forward to catching up with old friends 👍😀 #lockontommi #boatsthattweet #narrowboatlife

[LockOnTOMMi @LockOnTOMMi]

Well that’s the Rochdale completed 😀👍 Next stop Calder and Hebble navigation 😀 Weekend off in Sowerby first though😜 #lockontommi #boatsthattweet #narrowboatlife

Moored in Hebden Bridge for the evening after a busy day locking our way down the Rochdale canal. Saw a guy with a long windlass to assist with the stiff ground paddles. Great idea if you planning this trip👍 #lockontommi #boatsthattweet #rochdalecanal

We’ve reached the summit of the Rochdale canal. Lots of challenges on the way up from Manchester but well worth the effort. Looking forward to crossing into Yorkshire and heading down hill 😀#lockontommi #boatsthattweet #narrowboatlife

@Mikesmi78271238 I seem to be broken at the moment 😩😬😂😂

[LockOnTOMMi @LockOnTOMMi]

Made it to the Irk Aquaduct on the Rochdale Canal 😀 7 miles 20 locks, 5 trips down the weed hatch the offending items being a carpet, a bike tyre, a shell suit jacket and the leather cover from a car seat 😩 we had 4 low pounds needing water brought down. #boatsthattweet #tired

[LockOnTOMMi @LockOnTOMMi]

Some beautiful visitors today on the canal 😀 #lockontommi #boatsthattweet #narrowboatlife

[LockOnTOMMi @LockOnTOMMi]

Marple lock flight “Done” now moored with a well earned coffee and a bottle of ibuprofen 😂 16 locks done 108 to go on this planned trip 😩 Bring it on 😬 #lockontommi #boatsthattweet #narrowboatlife

[LockOnTOMMi @LockOnTOMMi]

Many thanks 🙏 to the CRT volunteers who pulled us free of an underwater obstruction on the Peak Forrest Canal yesterday, we got well and truly aground. I think we would still be there at Christmas without them 😟 #lockontommi #boatsthattweet #narroboatlife #aground

[LockOnTOMMi @LockOnTOMMi]

Started my morning with a brisk walk along the Peak Forest Canal and round Bugsworth,crisp air, clear skies, and the still water reflecting the trees like a perfect mirror. Nature’s beauty never fails to inspire! 🌿🚶‍♂️ #MorningWalk #PeakForestCanal #boatsthattweet #lockontommi

[LockOnTOMMi @LockOnTOMMi]

TOMMi tucked up in Bugsworth. Marple flight has an additional Two week delay for repairs so we will have to hang around on this stretch a little longer😟 Still there's worse places to be 😀 #lockontommi #boatsthattweet #narrowboatlife
