Looks like somebody didn't do the handcuffs on the next lock down :D, though I half remember one of them does not work. Its quite a long pound to fill back up too.

I don't know the reason for being just there with the boat, so perhaps I shouldn't say anything, but with my boat I would be stuck on almost any canal so far out of the channel, low water or not.

The lock is immediately behind them, they had just exited the lock (where the other boat then grounded), their stern grounded and the bow swung around.

Thank gawd for passers by with video cameras. We can all now be film stars in our own mini movies. I can't wait for my debut. Hope my hair looks good whilst I'm bleeping away:)

It shows up all the bad habits - like the guy at the start holding the rope on the near side. Looping it round your back is not a good idea.

A bollard would have been a lot easier or even just a touch of reverse
