We planned to take Averina onto the river Severn today down stream to Tewkesbury, but alas the lock keeper said the river is in flood and they are not letting any boats onto it. So we've come the other way towards Tardebigge. Oh how I love those 30 locks, one after the other in quick succession! Today we completed 15 locks between Droitwich Spa Marina & The Queens Head pub at the bottom of Tardebigge. We're not far from Bromsgrove. We've moored in a lovely spot - a Heron keeps visiting but every time I reach for my camera he flies off. Massive wing span. We've also seen rabbits, ducklings & a family of 7 signets - they were gorgeous. Met lots more boats on the canal today, the British Waterways volunteer said he's seen 12 boats through the Hanbury locks today which is his record!
