Marston Jabbett

It turned quite cool again during the night but mild this morning and all day, although its been very overcast until mid afternoon. There were nowhere near as much traffic about today and we only met one boat and had one follow us all day.
It wasn’t much of a problem getting off the soft mud this morning but tis strange walking around the boat with a list on. I noticed yesterday as we crossed Shenton Aqueduct some one has cut the full length of the offside bank which use to give access to the Battle Field, I am not sure would do this or why.DSCF7567

This is something you don’t see every day, an outboard powered Narrowboat, but this looks like a permanent feature.DSCF7568

We carried on to fill with water at the A5 road bridge near the Lime kilns pub before continuing almost to Marston Junction to moor for the night.
