The lock in our front door has been sort of crappy and prone to sticking since the day we moved in; we've pretty much always used the back door only for the last couple years because we wanted to make sure not to get locked out of our own house.

 

Until today! Some drilling and some chiseling and some screwdrivering and some futzing and, blammo: a front door we can actually use to leave the house through.

The final lock on the Forth and Clyde canal, which connects the east and west of Scotland, from the river Forth to the river Clyde. There are 39 locks on the canal - so why is this Lock 40?

Camden lock gates are being replaced by the Canal and River Trust as part of a national restoration project they are at the first stage on the first pair of gates the other pair are still on the barge. Both sides of the lock will be renewed so that is a total of four pairs of gates. I had a close up look at the gates on the barge and they are new and not recycled so these gates are still being manufactured, that's good news for employment.

The lock at Heybridge basin under going refurbishment and interesting to see just how deep these locks are.

Luckily this place had a pretty secure looking lock on the door. I'd hate to think what treasures could be behind it accessible to all otherwise.

Water levels have dropped a little on the Thames now, though still high. This is the exit to Molesey Lock, opposite Hampton Court Palace, even as yet another shower clears away. There is still very little difference between the heights above and below the lock.

The Yale lock on my front door has been sticking a bit so I squirted some WD 40 on it. I had to buy a new can. I first heard about it when I was doing a car maintenance evening class when I was learning to drive in 1965. It's so long since I bought one that I'd not seen one with the captive red tube.

Canal Lock 58 at Ratcliffe on Soar, Nottinghamshire with Ratcliffe on Soar Power Station in the background.

 

The water in the foreground is overflowing from the canal to the right of me, rushing down towards the river Soar in front and flooding the river bank which normally sits between the canal and the river (waders were required:)

 

I've been back since and the flood waters have drained... Fun while it lasted!
