Last night we moored just in the right spot as we ate in the Lazy Otter and didn't get wet walking home from there as the boat was right by the garden. Overnight it poured with rain once again for most of the night and been showery all day today.
We shoved off around 10 am. the working pair we had seen moored at Great Haywood cam passed just before we set off but moored up about a quarter of a mile ahead of us. We were moored directly behind the ex working boat Dover that Alan Heard restored in a TV program about 15 years ago. We met a few boats as we made our way to Fazeley where we topped up with water before continuing on to Glascote Locks where one was against us and one with us.
Its all change at Glascote Basin with a different hire company now working out of their, Warwickshire Narrowboat Hire. Once clear of the lock we only travelled ½ mile before mooring for the night so we have a bit to do tomorrow to charge the batteries up.
Todays Journey 4½ miles, 2 locks in 2½ hours
