Norbury Wharf Limited: Snow again

Wednesday 13 February 2013

Snow again

Just when we thought the weather was improving - it has snowed again! It's been mighty cold outside today, I went out in the van earlier and the external thermometer was reading -4°C!

Mick and Steve have undocked the boats that were on the dock and docked one of the dayboats. The dock desperately needed cleaning out and as the weather has been so foul they have set about that. Steve's also been out delivering coal and we have managed to swap the boats in the paint dock too.

Joyce and Ange have been busy sorting, tidying and serving customers in the shop and tearoom and getting items onto Ebay.

Wrap up warm and have a night in by the fire!

Best regards,

David

Located on the beautiful Shropshire Union Canal at the junction of the now disused canal to Newport and Shrewsbury, this is an ideal cruising base for the famous Four Counties Ring, with convenient access to the Black Country ring, Llangollen canal and its famous Pontcysyllte aqueduct as well as the Staffs and Worcs canal with its terminus at Stourport

Norbury Wharf Limited offers full boatyard services seven days a week and is staffed by a team of narrow boat enthusiasts including qualified tradesmen. A fleet of sixteen hire boats, four day boats and a 42-seater passenger trip boat are operated all year round.

As well as this there is a fantastic array of facilities including a covered heated painting dock for professional coach painting, a large covered dry dock for hull blacking and repairs, workshop facilities for all engineering, electrical and carpentry work.
