Peter, your latest set of photos (Leeds, Tower, Ladywood) will not load on my phone. The earlier ones are fine.

I cant see any pictures on Peters last 3 posts either.  Just "no through road " symbols.

Oh Mi Gawd! That lock. [Slaithwaite Guillotine Lock] We had 'issues' there, nearly had to spend the night in it. Going downhill, lock emptied, got the gate about a third of the way up when the lifting mechanism went PING!  Too low to get the boat out but high enough to let any water run in out, so we couldn't refill and come back up again. It took two CaRT men, two contractors, four vans and a passing cherry picker to sort things out.

On this day in 2008
