A few pictures of the trip to Salterforth.

I saved these pictures the other day and have got to use them now as the reception here is so bad I cannot upload anything.



You see some strange things chugging along. No other boats, roads, or bridges etc for miles just this solitary boat with accompanying shed.
Another variation of lock equipment, a nice little step to balance on while you wind away, some of those steps are over the water making it all the more interesting.
This is the Foulridge Tunnel, the red eyes glaring at you are traffic lights allowing you in at half past the hour to twenty to. A ten minute window every hour.

Swallowed by the green eyed monster. Another wet tunnel but still not a patch on the Blisworth.


Another shot of just outside Burnley.

I now have another strangely named boat to add to my list:

Moose Drool.

The Vented Spleen.

And now "Floater".

We are now in a fantastic location overlooking the Pennines just near the Yorkshire border, unfortunately I can't upload any pictures yet but they will be coming soon.

Until then...................
