Grand Union in Leamington
Back to Leamington Spa where the Grand Union flows through the centre of the town (and handily flows opposite the railway station!) I had a nice walk along the canal until i was outside of the town. Plenty of boats, interesting sights and ducks. Millions of ducks! They all seemed to want bread from me too but alas i was bread-less. Here are the photographs.

Tame Valley Canal 28/06/11
I went a walking and a snapping (as in photos - do you still take snaps on a digital camera?) along the Tame Valley Canal in Perry Barr today. Familiar territory to start with but i then went on further than i can usually make in a work lunch hour (as i'm not at work today) and made it as far as the Walsall Road. In doing so i climbed up the amazing lock flight high over Perry Barr. Here you can see the photos.

Back to Stratford
Back to Stratford today and a revisit of the canal which i walked along last year. Its an interesting canal, especially near the Avon where you get a lot of new boaters desperately trying to work out how to steer the things and how not to run into things... something which takes awhile to master. Luckily narrowboats tend to be pretty tough!
