"on the cut"

This is us just getting to the top lock. !


Whey Hey. It took us 4.25 hours to do the lock-flight up from Northampton. Its a lovely flight of locks, full to bursting with wildlife, especially water voles. A survey was done,and there is a big contingent of them here. Unfortunately I didn;t see one.







So we are moored just up from Bugbrooke. Cor, dont we know we are on"the cut". Its quite busy after the quiet life of The Nene, but heyho, this is what its all about.



Its interesting having a shower, with boats going by. I had quite forgotten all the bouncing about. So glad we didn't take the hip bath affair out of the bathroom, as it has a seat in it, and when losing you balance, its quite good to just be able to sit it out whilst they all pass by . Finlay has had the hump about something. not sure what, as he is now getting loads of walks, as its so easy to get off Trundle at a bridge and back on at another. It could be the trains. Nothampton to London line.
