IMHO: Traffic levels are well below average.
I don't think I've ever seen HRR finals day so quiet.
Swan Upping next week will cause a minor blip upwards.

H,mm.
Suspect our usual cruise plan, Teddington, Hampton Ct, PHYC ,Runnymede. Lady Wotsits, Cookham and perhaps adventuring even further up assuming no flat batteries/prop damage this time.
The real clever bit will be to planning the escape, ideally no crack of dawn departure over a weekend, where most of the worryingly fit population of West London, twixt Richmond and Chelsea will be out on anything that floats.

Some might suggest that being told off in no uncertain terms by the staff at the barrier for dropping my anchor for about 10 mins while waiting for the barrier to lift might have something to do with it.
I could not possibly comment.

Barrier? That’s where the confusion lies

News:
I am hearing that there is a gate collar broken at Romney Lock.
This was not on any of the EA feeds yesterday afternoon, (after all why would a Harbour Authority, focused on the leisure industry, be at work on a Sunday?) but I am sure is correct information.
It may take precedence, if the EA have the parts, as Swan Upping will pass there late this afternoon.
