10th April 2011
The half mile or so of the Old Main Line heading towards Spon Lane Junction is mostly under the M5, with its supporting pillars carefully positioned either side of the navigation.
On the right the Titford Canal heads up to the Titford Pools reservoir. In 2005 we got half way up the six Oldbury Locks before being told we couldn't go any further as there was a BW maintenance boat sunk at the top lock. We managed to wind - just - and went back down. This year we didn't have time to do justice to the canal, so it joins the list of canals still to be "done".

Day 1 of our hols and not the best start.

A break in the weather at last and a great morning to set off in MB. Took
far longer to reach our destination though, not because of traffic,...
