The locks are now coming thick and fast, 9 completed today in the short distance to Newbury. Although we do have help this weekend as Pip & Rog’s son and fiancée are staying over. We must be getting used to the river a little bit more, we still had strong currents and sluices to contend with and some tricky locks, but we handled them okay. From Newbury it is now canal, until we get to Bath.
