John Liley Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) On the Yonne to the north of Auxerre, going up, then, at a lock farther on, out. As may be seen, coming the other way can be tricky, merging into the downright dangerous if your arrival is unexpected. Waiting points are a rarity; it is always a good idea to let the staff know you are coming..

PeterScott Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 On this day in 2016 More of Edgeware and Balham, the photographically much-travelled pair, here at their home location Nether Heyford GU South ... Compare 9Oct2008 (post) 13Aug2010 Sadly the IWA gave a photoprize (see thread here) for showing them at (a mirror-image of) a location they probably couldn't have reached, in order to promote the benefits of canal restoration. You Couldn't Make It Up. Or, of course, you can: here from the thread they are at Farmers Bridge, and below at Flatford Mill On 04/11/2020 at 14:14, Athy said: They're illegally moored. Send for a Constable. And here they are at the South Pole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Displays on the Bridge operating pedestal I remember on a bright, sunny morning back in 2001 puzzling for ages why that bridge wouldn't work. Eventually, as I was on the brink of calling BW, I accidentally shaded the display and found it was to allow the morning rush hour traffic to cross without interruption by boats raising the bridge. 😣🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
