Leeds to Field locks
The boat I thought I had arranged to share with starting at 8am, set off at 7.45am. We left at 8.15 but they were waiting for us at River Lock. So we shared locks all the way up to Newlay where we moored. Went for lunch in the Abbey Inn.
After lunch we carried on hoping to get to Saltaire and catch a train into Bradford for the evening. However when we got to top lock of Field triple, we discovered that it was locked. We decided to stay on board for the night and use up some of my emergency rations, and have a night without real ale!
