Messing About on the Grand Union. 12 Locks.

Another broken mouse!!!!

This is the second one in six months, I have done the surgery and it is working now but very badly.



Our guests have left us now and we are on our way to Warwick to pick up the next one.
This will be Sam for the second time this year. Glutton for punishment.


This is D's brother Paul and his wife Dee. Two D's on one boat was interesting, until we got used to it.
A strange object was in the sky above the boat giving off heat.





Is "Tiller Terror" a legitimate complaint?





Aaaarggghh this is how you do it.




On our way back up the Knowles flight of five and the sun had once more relinquished to showers, cloud and wind.

We have had over a four hour return trip just to turn around after we had dropped them off at the Taxi pick up point due to a severe lack of Winding holes (turning points) around these parts.
This is another very under used piece of the canal system, that could be linked to it being a difficult approach to Birmingham itself.
There is a surfeit of canalside Inns though.......... which was nice.


Back down the Hatton tomorrow dodgy mouse and all.......................
