I have stayed at Bardney Lock for today. I was going to move on but the problems presented by by the wind when I turned the boat to head back to the lock gave me pause for thought. Do I want the 30+mph in my face and when it started raining I gave in and stayed put.
The canal at this point is a long straight of about 3 km and with the wind blowing directly along it. By the time the waves get to this end of the straight they are between 12 - 18 inches in height. Consequently there is some movement in the boat.
With luck I won't be seasick this evening.
My delightful assistant of yesterday is now at home and back to school. The place is very empty without her to brighten up the day.

Hey, you've been a bit busy since the last time I checked you out.
I've nearly got the kitchen finished - Suzy might let me out to come visiting soon.
Love the blog - it's brilliant.
