Met a good one today on Bosley locks, Had a word at the top and warned me about a couple of low pounds, then he walked down, had a quick word and said he was going to check the pound again and would open up for me on his way down. That is really useful rather than standing beside me or Diana at the same lock.

They've got some excellent people there at the moment, mostly transferred from Marple. Knowledgeable and helpful.

have you ever met Roger?

he used to be leader on the Marple flight. Lovely bloke. 
I’ve often wondered if he’s still volunteering. 
Must be 4 years since I last went down Marple flight.

The guy I met had his son with him, helping. Can't remember the name.

Well we have just been half way up the flight because the last boat going up left all top gates open and all paddles up. We only went half way as we met a boat coming down, so we opened all the gates again, and the bottom ones and paddles for them.
