Fantastic early morning sun, both days, and barometer definitely on the rise! Ddisappointment when we tried to have a pub lunch, unwelcoming staff, cost of beer, and a long wait to give our food order, we returned to the boat and saved our pennies - nay several pounds for another day.
Stayed put for the rest of Tuesday, painting and reading. Tested the heating system, as it is obvious that it will not be long before we shall need it .It worked fine - phew!
This was a nice quiet mooring until the late afternoon, and the lemming instinct took over.
We had expected rain today (Wed), that is according to the professionals, but no, a pleasant warm, and sunny day, everybody happy.
The stop lock as we waited to turn onto the Shropshire Union, was a bottleneck, goodness knows what it is like on a busy turnround day with the adjacent hire boat base in full swing. The insignifitant difference in water levels the lock made, suggests that the gates could be left open.
Spot the Difference!
