Dudswell Locks, Grand Union – Friday 5 October 2012
I am definitely ‘over the hill’ and everything is downhill from here on!  I stopped off at Cowroast marina to refuel and have gone on a couple of locks to find a mooring.  Today I have covered 11 locks and 6 miles and seen only 3 boats going north, but it is almost a continuous line of moored boats from Tring.  It has been cloudy all day with the sun struggling to break through, tomorrow I only plan to go into Berkhamstead (2 miles and 8 locks).  The boat I called Valhalla is actually called Walhalla and appears as the show boat in November’s Canal Boat magazine if you want to see what I meant yesterday.
