English weather

Well it had to happen but are pleased it took 10 days. Other than a bit of drizzle when we arrived from Dublin the days have been glorious with temps in the low to mid 20's. Just like back in Napier before we left.

Wednesday 26th. 3 1/2 miles, 5 locks.

Started off cold, I , l even put longs on. It was market day in Market Drayton so we spent the morning looking and buying local food. Wondered around the village, looked in their local museum as Diana clicked buildings, doors, flowers and all sorts of other pictures. Back to the boat for lunch about 1430. with rain on the horizon we set off for todays short run. Started to rain just before we hit the locks. Wet and cold so once we hit the bottom of the locks we moored up for the night and lit the fire. The sun has just shown itself as it dips delow the horizon.
