Barging along

A canalside bus pass walk this morning, before the unpleasant weather which was forecast, was due to set in.  The route was changed just in case the snow  arrived as promised (it didn't!).  Nevertheless a very good walk with a party of ten - C has now got a whistle to try to keep us all under control - think she needs a sheepdog as well!!
Spotted 3 deer just below the 5 rise locks, plus a kingfisher and some gooseanders.
