Hawne Basin

Here I am Rune

Distance 12.4  miles

Total 4311 Locks  278 Tunnels

Running total mileage 6,570.8 miles

 

Today was just a simple,straight run back to Hawne Basin, although we did take a short detour through Icknield Port Loop to have a look at the housing developments there (it’s a while since we have passed that way). I have to say that the design was easy money for the Architects, they are just a load of boxes, but if they are affordable it would be a bonus (the advertised price said starting at £195.000 so these days I suppose that is ‘affordable’ near to a city centre.

The rest of the trip was a bit ‘same old, same old’ since I’ve done it quite a few times. There was a bit of a ‘rush hour’ though as we moved off out of Birmingham, with 5 other boats all moving off at the same time, we made quite a convoy.

The plan is now to remain in the marina until somewhere about  6th or 7th of August and then set off on another excursion.
