Cruising beneath the cows !

We did some locks with this load of blokes and they are in a band called the tequila stuntmen- and the drink is as follows : sniff the salt, drink the shot and squeeze the lemon juice in your eye.! I am told that people do DO this. Mad.

Mick got one of my "looks" on the way to Foxton. We had done some locks that were close together and I asked how far to the next one. " oh about 400 yds", says he.................. about 3/4 of a mile later I arrived sodden with rain at the next lock, and the bloke at the lock coming down said, " Oh isn't it far to the next lock, then?" and NO I didn't say " nah. its only 400 yds" but was tempted too. I couldn't call him names, as we were locking with a grandad, a nana and a grandson . But Grandad did say " Don't think much to your idea of 400 yds mate".

Another strange thing; When we go through a tunnel, inside lights have to be switched on, the headlight goes on, and then into the tunnel and it goes dark outside and ............................Finlay goes to bed ! when we emerge the other side, lights get switched off and it gets light outside and ...............................Finlay gets up. At the moment we are in an area where there are 3 longish tunnels within a coulpe of days. Heee heee. what a hoot.

Hope these cows behave themselves as we pass beneath them, if you know what I mean. !!!!
