Kindly click HERE to 'have a listen'..
(its a bit choppy in places, but delightful to hear and the Little Black Bomber cheese that is mentioned is pure and simply the Best Mature White Cheddar you have ever tasted!)
And in the Canals Rivers + Boats Magazine: a two page spread about Cheese Boat I and II.

BTW the Smiling couple below is Geraldine and Mike Prescott, owners of Cheese Boat I and fully to blame for all of this Cheese Boat nonsense..(g) It's what good friends do, right?

Winter Comes To England!
ERII Email received: November 29, 2010
We had a Xmas fair to attend in Kings Sutton this weekend, but much snow forecasted over the next few days. So got ourselves down here, pronto. It has been very cold in Cheshire -10C that very f*****g cold on a metal boat. The pond has about two inches of ice on it now! The central heating has been keeping up well, just nice to get into nice warm house.
They have been having a hard time get water to the moorings. Brand new marina but the contractor screwed up and did not insulate the pipes properly. The managers left one tap on each section of moorings( one you tag several hoses together to reach each boat). But someone came along in the middle of the night and turned off the tap. Well guess what, frozen!!! So went through the whole process again and the good Samaritan came along again and turned the taps off, once more. They were at it again when we left.
