I think I saw you heading up to the lock. We were there to show the kids how it was done but no boats came through. The lock keeper went home and we left.

Saw one boat heading upstream as we were a mile away.

Maybe it is best we weren't there to witness!

My first manual lock was at 9pm in the dark. Great fun learning it then......Can't wait until I get to do Temple at lot - boat will be at Harleyford.
