Ode to Old Towpath

Alas. the old towpath surface was burried earlier this year, not quite six feet under, more like about half an inch actually.
The old surface did have its puddles and was fun to negotiate in the damp, but it also had something that the new surface is sadly lacking - puddles.
I'm sorry to say that the new surface just seems to turn into a grey-brown sludge in the damp.

So, in memoriam of the puddles - here are some pictures of them!!






OK, I admit the last one is more of an ex-puddle as Ava zoomed through it, nowadays, she and Rufus return slighty less damp and slightly more grey-brown and sludgy.
