Hemel Hempstead



Hemel Hempstead, Grand Union Canal – Friday 26 25 April 2013
I am now out in the wilds – I’ve crossed the M25!!  Today has been a day of contrasts.  It rained heavily through the night but by 06:00 it had stopped, then it has been intermittent sunny (jacket off) and raining (jacket on) all day as clouds scudded across the sky.  I started out at 07:45 and finished at 16:00 having completed 13 locks and 6 miles.  At Cassiobury Park lock there was a team of C&RT workmen fixing the gates, it was interesting watching them.  No boats were travelling the same way and only three were going down towards London.  I am now here for the weekend.
