Thursday/Friday 9/10 April 09. Top of the Tardebigge Flight to Tibberton 41 locks 1 tunnel.

Thursday:

We all knew this was going to be a huge day getting the boat back down the flight and trying to get within striking distance of Worcester for a Friday drop off for our guests.

41 Narrow locks, all but a few against us, is a great achievement for boat and crew.

Kudos to Sam & Joe.


On the way we passed fields full of shy Lambs, we managed to get this picture as they were chewing the grass that was greener on the other side.


This is Mistletoe growing wild on its host tree.

Host tree says I? its a Mistletoe tree, its not throwing a party.

There is no such thing as a Mistletoe tree says D (and Google, I checked), Mistletoe is a parasite that lives on various trees.

Oh well still time for a kiss as we chug slowly under.

Friday:

We made it back to Worcester in the early afternoon and said a fond farewell to our passengers.

They do seem to have enjoyed the short break with us and say they would like to come again.

We have made a decision to head for Llangollen over the next month or two so off we go

tomorrow....................
