9 locks through Napton

Beautiful day today we started out just as 2 boats went pass. Let's hope they are not too slow says Baz! True to form the 1st boat was going along at tick over so we passed them by, then the 2nd was all over the place trying to get dog and wife on to towpath without pulling over! Anyway passed them and got to Napton locks. Lock keeper on duty helping us through then on to the 3rd which was the one where the wall had collapsed. R & C have done a good job making it all safe, but major work for Nov/Dec this year.
 Passed several boats coming down so all good.
Moored up by bridge 121 lovely views again. Barry touched up some paint work on roof, I read my book, Kate phoned and we chatted now getting dinner sorted. Chicken from butchers at Braunston she'd be good.
