Tonight we are moored at Trevor or Trevzie as I expect it is known locally. In itself not a particularily famous place but it is the basin you land up in if you don't turn left at the end of the aquaduct. Which nicely links to the Aquaduct itself Anything about it's wonderment you may have heard is true and then some. It is not possible to tip the boat over the edge but neverless I clung to that tiller like it was a matter of life and death. I have to say I probably wouldn't do it again other than I have got to ( unless I want to leave the boat in Wales). I think not. I did see a couple of people wearing lifejackets. Why? Parachutes maybe.
