Kennet and Avon

[hilaryb]

Is anyone travelling East from Devizes or west of this Spring? Looking for someone to cruise along with for double locking. Am a single female boater.

I met Hilary in December when she was walking by the canal and very kindly helped me up the Caen hill flight. I hope someone can return the favour and share some locks to ease her journey.

Its very quiet now but by spring there should be a few boats moving, though this does depend on what you mean by spring. Things usually hot up at Easter. If you just hang around at a lock for an hour its very likely another boat will turn up (hopefully not a fat one!) K&A boaters are, in my experience, amongst the friendliest on the system and will always share locks. If going down the flight its probably best to moor in Devizes the night before (or a couple of nights before) and chat to the other boats to see if somebody wants to share.

Yes, chat to other boaters, otherwise you'll get left to your own devizes...
