Thanks Linda, I think I've said before, it probably about a 200 yard stretch, between two bridges, with a weir at one end, and benches conveniently placed along if you want to sit. On a morning like yesterday (-2 when I was there shortly after 8) it's not advisable to stop too long, you'll stick to the bench lol

A great set of action photos. I'm slightly miffed on the Kingies behalf that all the effort was for no reward. The view from my doctors waiting room is nowhere near as good. :shake:
