As promised some photos of Birmingham on our way out this morning. We Started the locks at 8.45 and completed the 27 locks and moored up at 2.15. We had a great trip out although part of the Birmingham & Fazeley was very low on water so it was slow going and needless to say we picked up quite a bit rubbish on the propeller but in most cases a quick burst of reverse sorted it out.
We really have had a great time in Birmingham and it is a contender for our Christmas mooring.
We met some wonderful people who were doing the floating market and they have had a successful weekend.
