![]() One of the local attractions whilst we were staying near Warwick was a section of canal called Hatton Locks. There are 21 locks in a line, to allow vessels to climb and descend the varying water heights - pretty hard work if you're the skipper of a canal boat I would suggest!
We did see the peace and tranquility of the canal from the towpath..... ![]() ..... we also saw a number of narrow boats ..... ![]() ..... a lot of locks ..... ![]() ..... what we hadn't expected to see in the car park was a beautifully restored 1966 VW Beetle ..... ![]() ..... and an equally beautiful 1953 Riley 2.4 litre Drophead coupe - stunning! ![]() ..... but - there were some huge insects too ![]() ![]()

![]() Send some my way mate - can't afford to use the hosepipe on the garden now I'm on a water meter. To cut costs, all visitors to my house in future are advised to bring their own water supplies with them to cover cups of tea, hand washing and most of all - loo flushing
