Follow in the footsteps of Prunella Scales and Timothy West Our clients and friends based in the UK may have seen Sunday night's episode of Great Canal Journeys on Channel 4. If not, it's our 'on-demand' playback recommendation of the week!
For those further afield, check out the #GreatCanalJourneys hashtag on Twitter - at one point during the show airing, that hashtag was even 'trending' - a sure sign, apparently, of its popularity. You'll get a feel for the grace of the waterways and a warmth for the love of an adoring couple as they explore - self-driving their way from lock to lock, town to town, including the spectacle of the Arzviller boat lift. What's more, if ever you thought self-drive hire boating would be tricky, this is perfect proof that it's not. We also loved the fact that they cruised in north-eastern France, Lorraine and Alsace, one of the lesser known boating regions. The countryside gems to spot, taste and devour along the way are absolutely worth exploring - and Tim and Pru certainly enjoyed the wine! Naturally, we're talking self-drive hire boating today. Have a mooch, or send me an enquiry. |
