Locked Service last weekend

Old Windsor lock was on self service on both Saturday and Sunday.

  @EnvAgencySE Old Windsor lock on self service at noon today - not good

  @thamesmobo Hi. Old Windsor was double-manned from Romney this weekend, where the lock keepers are of greater benefit to boaters. Thanks.

  @EnvAgencySE Old Windsor and Romney both first locks for hire craft. Falls short of published service targets https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/419526/LIT_9912_15-16.pdf …

I am, of course, wasting my breath.

A good point well made though.
I fear as with most things in life it will take serious incident to get more action.

If they are short of staff and funds what can they do?

Shiplake Lock was also unmanned on Saturday and Sunday.
