THIS WEEK AT THE LOCKS

Well peeps just a short blog this week. The big news is we held our Macmillan coffee morning on Friday 18th and raised a magnificent £493. This was due to our very generous boaters, walkers and cyclists who passed through and stopped to purchase cake and coffee so a HUGE thanks to them. I must also thank my fellow lock keepers and their wives for baking such succulent cakes. Special thanks to lockie Jane for providing produce from her allotment that went in a flash, including the courgettes. A Special thanks to volunteer lockkeeper Kevin who wielded the cake slicing knife for 9 hours.

What else happened well one of our new lockies, Vince, successfully completed his RYA helmsman training with out good friends @willowwren.training so at least one of usa rough idea what this boating lark is about.

And finally. A boat came through this week called MAURICE. Last week we had a boat called FARNDON. I need to get these two boats together.
