AlfnBets come to visit

Nad & Si had a couple of nights away to celebrate their wedding anniversary, so we came to the rescue with the monsters at the caravan.

It’s not just Betty unwilling to be paparazzied this time

We took them to Five Rise Locks in Bingley, the highest lock staircase in England

We spent many hours there when living in Bingley

We were fortunate to see a longboat going up through the locks



Betty was brave enough to walk over the footbridge: there’s a big drop underneath!

I reckon Mr Heron is checking the menu for his lunch

At the top of the locks there’s a ‘swingy’ bridge…

…that needs to be opened to let barges & longboats through.

Down in Saltaire now where AlfnBets enjoyed racing around…

…and playing in the park.

Another example of anything you can do, I can do, eh Betty?
