Did anyone tell you that a Prince came today?


HRH Prince of Wales visited us today to formally open Wallbridge Lock.  The sun shone, the crowd was merry and all the great and good were there to greet him.


Much fantastic publicity will result from this visit, so please check that out.  Once on board 'Percy', the party headed out of Wallbridge Upper Lock and headed for a marquee reception alongside Lower Lock, entry to which involved cutting the obligatory ribbon with the gold plated scissors.


....and a plaque was unveiled to mark the event.


On departure, Prince Charles was heard to announce to the crowd: "You're trapped behind that fence!  It will be good when it's all opened up"
