Monday 30th April 2012
Due to high winds and heavy rainfall, we are still in the marina. The lock at Gloucester Docks is closed to all canal traffic due to high water levels and debris. Upper Lode Lock on the Severn is also closed.
The River Avon is on Red Alert meaning no movement.
We have checked with the met office, and Wednesday looks like the best day to leave the marina.
Hopefully we will still be able to join the Severn on Sunday 6th May

Tuesday 17 April 2012

On Sunday 6th May we will be going in to the lock at Gloucester Docks around 9.40am. If you want to see us leave, or meet us at Tewkesbury in the afternoon, please feel welcome to do so.
