Grindley Brook locks, Llangollen – Tuesday 7 August 2012
A quiet cruising day – I left at about 08:00 with very few boats about and a flat run to do (no locks).  There are some lift bridges on this stretch but they seemed easier to operate and I got to the locks at about 13:30.  The clouds did not clear until about 16:00 and the sun has been out since then.

I will be going down through the locks tomorrow and I hope they are kinder than on the uphill journey.
