20th June 2003 - Oxford Canal (yet again) and a Mad Dash
After work, I studied the gen hoping a 56 would drop onto 6V31). There was no gen, so decided to go to the Oxford Canal near Ansty again. No sooner had I got there than the gen about 56119 being on 6V31 came through, and after a couple of shots by the canal, I made the mad dash to Weston on Trent for the Grid and made it with about 1 minute to spare!
