TODAY'S online calendar brings you a cold snap of frost-glazeed banks and icy water at Aylesbury Canal.
Thanks to Pete Arnold for today's picture. The Grand Union Canal has several branches, usually termed 'arms'. Five miles (8 km) from Brentford, the Paddington arm leads to Paddington Basin and just north-west of the Basin at 'Little Venice' it connects to the Regent's Canal. At Cowley Peachey, the Slough arm runs 5 miles (8 km) to the west.

At Marsworth, about 35 miles (56 km) from Brentford, two arms leave the main line, one to Wendover (not currently navigable for its full length but being restored by the Wendover Arm Trust) and the other descends through several locks for 4 miles (6 km) to Aylesbury.
