Comments Originally from Leigh, these pics brought back great memories of my chilhood. My family still live in a canalside property which I visit regularly. 2012 may be the year I buy a narrowboat & leave the rat race for a while. Keep up the good work.

Comments I've revisited your site and it really is a good un Bri....you should publish a book as I've said before, it would be worth doing.
Be really good if you had links somewhere to google maps or OS.

Comments Am glad to see there will be a site for canal walking. I am 29 years old and love canal walking with my pooch Rupert. I must admit non of my friends or family are too keen on it so it can be quite a lonely past time. Would be great to see other peoples trips, stories, pictures, etc.

You may see me litter picking between the maghull and aintree branch of leeds liverpool canal, so say hi :-)

Comments Have you tried walking from Wigan to Leigh? I cycle to work in the summer (Leigh to Wigan) down the canal and it takes me about an hour. Lots of lovely scenery!

How did you find our site?    By accident
Comments You could walk the Cheshire Ring over several weekends or months by using public transport.
We travelled from Manchester, usually by train,to a start point, walk a strech of canal and then get the train back.
It is a wonderful and relatively inexpensive day out.
We now plan to walk the Pennine Ring through Rochdale, Sowerby Bridge and Huddersfield.
Hope you continue to enjoy your walking (or ambling)

Comments I have just spent two hours "walking along the Bridgewater Canal" on my computer. Thank you very much for your photography, this is an excellent Website. Keep up the good work.

I was born in Salford and lived in Flixton as a small child, before going to Australia. I have a twin brother, Pete, who lives in Urmston M/c and does a lot of walking and photography around the Manchester area. I will ask him to look at your site and make some comments on some of the "landmarks".

Cheers....Bill

How did you find our site?    just by mooching around
Comments Your walk from Stockton Heath to Runcorn: It's a shame you didn't have time to pop into Norton Priory on your walk, it has a great cafe where you could have replenished yourselves.

Comments Excellent site. Very informative. I've never ventured further than Lydiate (2002) by boat. I wondered if you ever do talks on your canal walks? I am programme organizer for Manchester Bolton and Bury Canal Society and would really appreciate it if it was possible for you to do this at one of our open meetings.
Regards
Frances

Comments I loved the comments from your walks - I was thinking of walking from Barton through to Stretford - I'll be wary of the goose now.

Comments Hi Brian
Congratulations on your new site, I'm sure it will become as popular as your other sites. I have visited many canal sites but none have much contribution to the cyclist. Perhaps it may be a idea for you to take note of the tow paths as to if they in your opinion are suitable for cyclist. I prefare to cycle along the canal as I'm sure many more cyclist do. Just an idea.
keep up the good work.
Chris
