Such a curious sized lock. I wish an alternative you had been around c: 1860 to point a camera at Taunton and surroundings' navigations, boats and associated people.

Lovely to walk from Firepool to Bathpool over lunch time,  then meet up with a handful of good friends. at The Plough.

Thanks CfN, appreciated. But if I recall that pub, it has a stepped entrance/interior - and no accessible toilet!

With my apologies for the blatant duplication,

I have revised my plans for tomorrow, so I will now be able to attend a hopefully convivial meeting in The Plough, Taunton, from 15:30.
If only for the opportunity to meet Finn, our Coffee Shop forum mascot, again.
CfN. 

If anyone requires assistance with access, I am happy to help.

CfN.

Very temped - to choose between - taking a side trip on the bus to Watchet or walking part of the canal towards Bridgwater - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridgwater_and_Taunton_Canal ...

Headline is "TravelWatch SouthWest" Cancelled - at far shorter notice than is comfortable.  As a director of TWSW, I apologise - the cancellation is due to multiple things that could not have been foretold or even guessed at a week ago, and as I always say to people "your health comes first" and that expands beyond personal contacts to speakers, organisers, and attendees.

A very difficult decision for our secretariat and chair to make - not one I envy them. 

I am aware that some people have travel plans to Taunton, and that there is a great deal going on (or not) especially with buses in the counties around.  As I had Friday set aside anyway, I'm planning to travel down for the day - a "jolly" perhaps - arriving 11:15 if the train is on time and leaving back around 6 p.m. I had already set up a post-meeting meeting for around 15:30 at The Plough and will still make that - happy to meet other friends too.

Will write more overnight - off to the WWRUG AGM now!
