We set off at 7am as we were meeting Cathy at the bottom of Farmer's locks at 11am.
We got to the next lock and I went up to open the gates and was met with this sight. It's a long pound so I couldn't just run a bit of water down; we had to call out the CART emergency team.
The water pouring down the bywash.
We sold Cathy that we would now be at the bottom of Farmer's at 1330, but were there by 1200. I popped to the cafe across the road for a toasted sandwich and a coffee and when I got back to the canal the boat had gone.
David had set off and met up with Tony, the Volunteer Lock Keeper who helped us up all the locks.
Cathy met us as we were coming into the top lock!
So a trip into Sherborne Wharf for a pump out and diesel before going back to the mooring.
A Cuttlebugged panel in white with a black and white floral paper band across the bottom. The sentiment was done on the computer, including the boxes and finished off with 3 black buttons. This panel was stuck onto a black card blank. Because it is a black card I stuck in a white insert for any sentiment.
