Newark (2)

Here I am Rune

Distance 0.9 miles 

Total 4684 Locks  313 Tunnels

Running total mileage 6,856.8 miles

We’ve done all that we needed to do in Newark and are now stocked up for the weekend. Filled up with water before leaving the pontoon mooring and have just moved a short hop along the river to Newark Nether Lock where the Elsan is. I’ve booked a passage through Cromwell Lock for Saturday morning at about 10.30 so tomorrow will just be a gentle ‘drift’ from here to Cromwell.

 

In the normal course of events this would probably be quite a noisy mooring since it is alongside the main East Coast Railway line, but today there is a national strike on, so the line is a lot quieter than normal, although there are still some trains coming through.
