CRUISING INTO SPRING

Spring is in the air and enough time has been spent sitting around feeling under the weather so
i left Fenny Stratford looking forward to a lock free cruise of 11 miles. The first site i wanted to
stop and look at although in the picture above there`s not much to see was where the proposed Bedford & Milton Keynes Waterway was planned to leave the Grand Union. At 16 miles long and estimated costs of £160-200 million is not expected to open until 2025. I`ll be 77 yrs old and i wouldn`t mind betting the cost would have risen sharply.

With Spring comes the Lambs and as usual amongst my fellow Bloggers i`m the last to get the
pictures but no matter Blogging isn`t a competition i`m just telling it as i see it.

Over the Aqueduct at New Bradwell

and under Soloman`s Bridge at Cosgrove.

Stopped off at Yardley Gobion village just a short stroll from the canal to get milk and bread.

The Lambs like buses you don`t see one for ages then they`re everywhere.
