Since the yellow circle has been introduced I seem to be working the locks more than last season. Friday 6pm Bray Yellow circle (at least its powered but the walk from the boat to lock up all those steps very inconvenient) Sunday morning Cookham 9.30am Yellow Circle walking and a few steps guess what no power here better start winding...crawled back to boat. nice cruise down to Boulters guess what Yellow Circle longer walk but at least power at this one. Order restored at Bray Lockie and assistant in attendance. Glad to get to work for a rest.
Forgot to mention Saturday morning 9.20 at Boulters another boater had to open gates. While we were in the lock the stand in keeper turned up rubbing the sleep out of her eyes with one hand the other had the telephone firmly attched to her ear.
