Maybe not everyone's on holiday...  I started many at day at around 6:00 
(moving off time) last year.  But I wanted to move the boat from top of the 
Stort to Whixall, and I could only get 17 days off - first Sat lost going to 
Essex (and shopping), then the Sun lost driving to Whixall and getting the 
train back to Bishop's Stortford.  Leaving me with just 15 days travelling - 
by picking the route of least locks (still a couple of hundred...) we did it 
with half a day to spare.
