We did start out on Saturday completing 7 locks to the top of the flight before lunch.  Unfortunately we did get rather wet on the last 2!  Stopped at there and went into the cafe to have lunch.  By the time we finished another boat had come along so we were able to pair which is ideal.  The 16 locks took us about 2 hours so not too long.  The other boat had 4 people on board so that meant there were 4 of us to operate the locks.  We then stayed the night at the bottom leaving the final 7 locks for Monday.  We are now in a very rural part of Wiltshire with only small villages alongside.  We have spent the night at Seend.  In the next couple of days we will pass north of Trowbridge, so well on our way to Bath now.

  1. Let me know when you will be at Bristol as if I can I will pop up and see you both, and if there is anything you need from down here let me know.
