  1. Who knows, seems everyone has a different story from different sources,
  2. CRT web site says nothing about blown cill, Sawley marina this morning told the same but local CRT office, and that is that it's closed until at least Wednesday, as I said the problem is not water levels, it's the lock cill that needs reconstruction and that why all the water ran underneath it.
  3. CART website has not been updated as per usual !! However Shardlow lock is still closed
  4. Im currently at Zouch traveling to Buckby over the next few days, may it be that way ?
  5. Had to turn around as Shardlow lock closed, back at Zouch tonight heading upstream on the Soar again tomorrow
  6. They were saying the call had blown and the lock was to be drained and re-concreted, they had already poured cement in above the top lock gate to seal them up ! Cill not call The levels in the pound above are rising but only because the top gates have been sealed
  7. CART guys there today said it will be closed a week ! We have turned around and heading back up the Soar CART guys there today said it will be closed a week ! We have turned around and heading back up the Soar
  8. Still waiting below lock for CRT to re-open, their web site states gates realigned so now just waiting for water above to be able to travel onward, should be fairly early tomorrow
  9. If CRT get back this evening I'll update with any news, 4 boats in the queue at present
  10. I am currently sitting below the lock waiting for CRT to re-open it, hopefully in the morning, water is being moved down this evening
  11. Shardlow lock on the Trent & Mersey is currently closed, boater used boat nose to open gates and damaged one, CRT on site carrying out repairs, but no waster above to fill, expected to be closed until tomorrow.
  12. At Zouch tonight onto the Trent tomorrow
  13. Got up to Birstall lock today, much nicer than Leicester, on to Barrow upon Soar tomorrow looking for a water point on the way, river sections are very nice indeed
  14. Hi currently a day out of Leicester, overnighting today at Kilby bridge, I need a tackle shop, any near the canal or river in Leiceser ?
