Shackerstone

At 8 o’clock this morning the temperature had dropped to –4Deg. C this was the coldest point overnight. Beside and behind the boat was clear water with a small section of ice ahead so we walked round to the aqueduct to see what it was like there, with the aid of a stick I estimated it to be about ½” where yesterdays ice had refrozen, so we went for a walk round the village and decided to give it another look after lunch. During the morning the sun came out and the temperature rose nicely to about +4Deg. C so about half one when the ice ahead had turned to like floating slush we gave it a go, all was fine until we went under the bridge and then it was no different to this morning so we called it a day on the 48hr moorings.map 17
