I sat around reading and getting fed up with back problem. Myra went off visiting Alex and wee Ian and looking at their house. She then went to East Riddlesden Hall. Chatting to various canalboat neighbours. Including Nigel from Slo Moshun 6, from 5 rise top who had come to visit his mate on ‘David Lloyd George’ which was moored in front of us.
Weather Bright and breezy, a few light showers.

MONDAY. At Riddlesden
The 2008 journey thus far: 235 Locks & 340 Miles & 32 Swing\Lift Bridges
Journeys using bus pass: 14
I sat around reading and getting more fed up with back problem. Myra went off to Bingley by bus and later visited the front door of the music shop at Riddlesden. The shop was closed on Mondays.
I walked to Puffer Parts in the afternoon as my back is easing slowly. Chatted to new neighbours, as there were now 9 boats moored here. A rumour was circulating the Moore swing bridge was broken. It was, but for a change for pedestrians, and was open for boats. Wandered along towpath after supper and saw two BW signs which I just had to include on the blog.

Weather Dry, sunny spells but windy.
