Mexborough



Here I am Rune
Distance 7.7 miles
Total 1335 Locks 70 Tunnels
Running total mileage 1882.5 miles

Once again moored back at Mexborough to give relative an opportunity to come for a short canal trip between Mexborough Top Lock and Mexborough Low lock. The weather held up quite well for the day, reasonable sunshine when travelling up to Mexborough and bright whilst doing the canal excursion. Only slight irritation was that after we had the canal trip we adjourned to a nearby pub for a pint and whilst we were there some local oik thought it would be a ‘laugh’ to release the mooring lines of the boat, fortunately the wind was in our favour and, although it turned the boat around, it didn’t drift out onto the canal.

Tomorrow a slightly longer day to get us to Doncaster Visitor moorings.
