Mops Farm Bridge Saturday 22nd August.
Friday.
Nothing to report apart from the arrival of Caleb for a few days.
Saturday.
If we were expecting to be awake early, we had a surprise. Caleb did not wake until 7am. We were moving by 8am, and he was able to manage some of the lower gates by himself.
We had passed through one staircase set at Botterham and headed for the unique set up at Bratch locks. There was a lockkeeper on duty so our passage through was safe and enjoyable.
Our mooring place through Mops Farm Bridge was chosen using Nicholson’s and Google maps to find an open area away from houses.
2009 Totals: 453 Locks – 844.5 miles – 29 Bus pass uses.
