March has arrived and nature thinks that spring is in the air!

The hedgerows and gardens are showing signs of new life emerging, birds are collecting bedding for their nests, lambs are appearing in the feilds.Flowers are bursting into existence and ready for mothering sunday the primroses are basking in the spring sunshine.

Winter arrives for the school half term

Winter has arrived with the start of the school half term holidays.

Luckly for us boat owners, if the canal is frozen, we can use our boats as a cosy floating cottage.

With all of our boats moored in rural locations close to lots of attractions it may be time to venture away from the canal and try visiting the surrounding area.

Have you visited Drayton Manor theme park,zoo, Stafford and Lichfield with lots of interesting buildings and museums.

The jewel in the crown of the area is Lichfield cathederal it is a fascinating visit.

A Winter Wonderland at the show

Thank you for the many telephone calls from those of you who were unable to attend this event due to the weather and we look forward to welcoming you over the following weeks as the conditions improve.

 Our boats are normally available to view on “turnaround day” (Friday) but we will accommodate weekend viewings where bookings allow. Please contact us on 0844 2473970 and we will do our best to accommodate your requirements.

Happy New Year

A very Happy New Year from all of us at Ownashare Cruising!

We are delighted to welcome the owners of n/b Yelvertoft who join Ownashare management from this month. The boat is based at Great Haywood marina, and takes our total of managed boats to fifteen.

Happy Christmas Cruising

Well Christmas is upon us and the weather up to now has been fair.

The stoppage program has been going very well with many of the stoppages ending ahead of schedule.

Compare this to last years big freeze!

As I write this some of you will be seeing snow today but the weather at Bromley Wharf is cool but sunny.

The Ownashare team wish you a wonderful Christmas season and New year and we look forward to caring for you and your boat through the 2012 season of cruising.

Linda,Tom,Phil,Jeff and Dave
