The weather just keeps getting better, a few more boats on the move today. A lone CRT man is hard at work painting the M69 bridge, when we saw him he was just walking back from his truck packed at the social club with another tin of paint.
This was one of the brightest bushes we have seen this year so far, it looked great in the warm sunshine.
The water is well up again so at the small bank slippage the towpath is back under water, CRT have closed this section some months ago now.
This is all that’s left of the Diwali light display in Newbold Tunnel, goodness knows how many thousands of pounds it cost to instal only to be left to rot away.
We moored for the night in Newbold at the first visitor moorings with rings, it unusual for the ring spacing to work out right but these ones are spot on for us.
