Whilst they worked hard the environment was quiet for the horse drawn boats and helming, whilst hard work on a big boat does give you time to think and ponder. Though they were probably concerned at getting this load delivered as quickly as possible so they could do the next one. Locks etc are a bit of fun for us but were just a delay for them as they tried to press on. Even more so for the flyboats who frequently left paddles up and bridges open! Also we complain about the state of things sometimes, though since CRT it is much improved, but looking at old pictures and reading stuff things were not always so great then, and certainly the boatmen were not gentle with stuff!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1637\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1637\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Start-the-day.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1637\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/bright-starts-rainbows\/start-the-day\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Start-the-day.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"4263,2473\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Start of the day on Lady Teal in the Dales on the Leeds Liverpool Canal\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Start of the day on Lady Teal in the Dales on the Leeds Liverpool Canal&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Start of the day on Lady Teal in the Dales on the Leeds Liverpool Canal&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Start-the-day-300x174.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Start-the-day-1024x594.jpg\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1637\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Start-the-day-1024x594.jpg\" alt=\"Start of the day on Lady Teal in the Dales on the Leeds Liverpool Canal\" width=\"640\" height=\"371\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Start-the-day-1024x594.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Start-the-day-300x174.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Start-the-day-768x446.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1637\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Start of the day on Lady Teal in the Dales on the Leeds Liverpool Canal<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1638\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1638\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Great-Rainbow.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1638\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/bright-starts-rainbows\/great-rainbow\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Great-Rainbow.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"4171,1928\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Lovely Rainbow, Greenberfield on the Lady Teal on the Leeds LiverpooCanal\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Lovely Rainbow, Greenberfield on the Lady Teal on the Leeds LiverpooCanal&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Lovely Rainbow, Greenberfield on the Lady Teal on the Leeds LiverpooCanal&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Great-Rainbow-300x139.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Great-Rainbow-1024x473.jpg\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1638\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Great-Rainbow-1024x473.jpg\" alt=\"Lovely Rainbow, Greenberfield on the Lady Tel on the Leeds LiverpooCanal\" width=\"640\" height=\"296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Great-Rainbow-1024x473.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Great-Rainbow-300x139.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ladyteal.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Great-Rainbow-768x355.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1638\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lovely Rainbow, Greenberfield on the Lady Teal on the Leeds LiverpooCanal<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well the day started well with a lovely morning on the curly wurlies, then it was sunshine, showers and rainbows.
