Vlog 53: The Smell of the Greasepaint
Getting back on track with the travel vlogs from my Grand Tour earlier this year, I pick up where I left off in Vlog 51 (Bascote) and continue my route back towards Braunston. In doing this I pass through the Stockton lock flight with the help of the lovely folk on the Mikron Theatre Company boat (www.mikron.org.uk) and up up just past Wigram’s Turn marina (Napton Junction)
The Arm at Willow Wren training is not a new arm. It is the original entrance to Nelson’s Cement works which is being dug out after being filled in many years ago.

Do you still want the horn?

Yes but they are digging out an entire new section of arm, having first restored that existing short length. Ray, I’m so sorry I didn’t call about the horn – I’ve wired up the (old) spare horn that was fitted in the well deck and it works fine so I’ll stick with that but thank you so much for the offer. Regards, David
