Post subject: | Hadar in Uttoxeter Basin |
Having narrowly made it through the low Froghall Tunnel, Hadar is currently moored in Uttoxeter Basin. Keith & Jo weren't around, when I took this, but when I came back later, I was able to introduce myself and have a chat. |

It's quite some time since I had any contact with either of them, how are they both. |

When I spoke to them, they had just done the red-route walk from Froghall, which involves quite a bit of climbing and descending of the valley sides. You don't do that, if you're not on form. They'd also been shifting coal around inside the boat, to weigh down the nose, so that it would fit through Froghall Tunnel. |
