Steamboating in the rain
Steamboating in the rain
On the Worcester and Birmingham Canal in the short pound below lock 14. I'm sheltering on Steam Launch Sans Son while Simba is moored up front while Lady Selsey and Lizzzeee are going up the lock. This was a Steamboat Association venture that was to go round the Mid-Worcestershire Ring but the vile weather thwarted it as the river parts of the navigation were impassable.
