What would happen if I changed my name to Mickey Mouse, thats E-lto-n J-oh-n, would I become a Mickey Mouse?
Now I know, yes I would! How daft is that? Does this querk have any use? Can we use it for mischief?
If my name was just John............ It stays as John. So its the E-lton bit that triggers it. Mickey Ah!

ah well they were ok, Sarah Jayne is the lady who knows little sis. I don't have any complaints and I only left there because I struggled solo and I couldn't really cope with the Watford flight one way and the big locks the other..there was no-where I just go myself. I always found Foxton and Watford relatively easy as they are assisted these days. Or they were last time I went through. Foxton is the nicer of the two and I always seemed to get caught in some sort of cross current when approaching the bottom lock on the Watford flight.

I do like the run over from Watford to Foxton .... I like all of the Leicester GU arm, it's very rural and quiet. Does lack pubs though except at Foxton.

There is the pub at the end of the Welford Arm (if still there). Nice basin to moor in if I recall. And I agree the Leicester Arm is a great length to chug around on - spent many happy weekends there and then there is the nice run up to Market Harborough if one does not mind doing the Foxton flight.
