“On Thursday 8th December 2011 41 hardy people from Liverpool CERSA held their Christmas Lunch on a barge sailing from the Mill Hotel Chester for a 2 1/2 hour cruise along the Shropshire Union Canal. Last year the voyage had trouble with Ice Bergs but this year it was only storm force cold winds and heavy rain but luckily we were all protected from the elements in warm boat. There was no reported cases of sea sickness and everyone enjoyed the meal and the trip.”
