We've made it to Scotland We made it to Scotland. After staying in Glasgow last night we were at Falkirk very promptly this morning. The hire base is shared with Alvechurch Boats, Black Prince and Capercaille cruisers. The boats are moored two abreast along pontoons at the rear of the office, which is the smallest hire boat office I’ve ever seen. It seems to be only about 10 feet square and soon filled up with people. Handover went fairly smoothly and we headed west along the Forth and Clyde Canal towards Glasgow.  Unlike the English Canals where locks and swing bridges are generally operated by boaters themselves, the Scottish Lowland Canals are operated by British Waterways (BW) staff. There were 6 boats heading west from Falkirk and we were quickly formed into three pairs to go through the four locks at Castlecary today. There are two BW operated bridges tomorrow and we have agreed to meet the BW staff at the first at 10:00 tomorrow morning so it’s an early night tonight and set off around 08:45 tomorrow.
