    There was no work going on that day, the only thing I can think of is possibly because of the locks being iced over and they haven`t got around to removing the fencing.

    So that `s what the fencing was for they were working on the locks today, Some of the basins still had enough water for the ducks.

    Initially I was sickened by what they were doing to my old tramping ground in that area ,but it is beginning to grow on me ,sadly the next generation will never be able to conceive what it was like originally or the historical ambience that existed previously when I & my grandfather worked & sailed from those docks or the thousands of migrants that boarded vessels in the Waterloo Dock to leave for a better life in the colonies .
