A Hyde Trip

Recently we ran a trip for Works4u college students. /https://works4u.org.uk/ They asked for a 4 hour trip, so the idea was to go to Hyde and back, normally about 3 hours, then see how much time was left, probably enough for a trip through the Asda tunnel and back. The lift bridge in Dukinfield had some fresh rubbish in it and we were stuck there for over an hour, so it was just a trip to Hyde.

Our guests seemed to enjoy it, especially seeing us struggle to get through the bridgehole.

Here's a picture of the boats near Well Bridge. Aaron is steering the motor, Nessie on the butty and Helen being a figurehead.
