Fleckney



Here I am Rune
Distance 5.1 miles
Total 1491 Locks 72 Tunnels
Running total mileage 2115.8miles 

Quite a busy day today, although only just over 5 miles we had 12 locks to go through as well. Fortunately we managed to team up with another boat, called ‘Raven’, so going through the locks as a pair made the whole process a lot easier. We separated after the lunch stop which left us with the final 5 locks to do on our own but is certainly speeded things up a bit.

Tomorrow when we set off the first thing we’ll encounter will be Saddington Tunnel but at least is should be a lock-free day as the intention is to go as far a Foxton since that will put us in travelling distance of Market Harborough for the weekend shopping. That will probably put us onto the Foxton flight of locks (10) on Sunday.
