Dukes Lock



Here I am Rune
Distance 1.1 miles
Total 1735 Locks 86 Tunnels
Running total mileage 2499.1 miles

Another short trip today, once again to carry out the domestic chores only this time we’ve gone the opposite way to last time and are now down by Dukes Lock. I have to say that given the current state of the Thames I am not optimistic about getting out onto it. We’ve set a target date  of 22nd April and if it hasn’t become navigable by then we’ll leave it for now and head off elsewhere. It becomes a bit boring waiting around for the river level to fall and by 22nd we’ll have wasted nearly a month since we got here. As we are doing this to have a nomadic lifestyle, waiting around for extended periods doesn’t really work with it, we need to be back on the move again!
