Middlewich to Rookery Visitor Moorings - Trent & Mersey Canal
4.75miles, 6 locks
It rained! The camera is still in its case. All outerwear had to go in the washing machine to spin out. The heating is on and the saloon is adorned with drying clothes.
One incident en route. As I was preparing the penultimate lock of the day, I opened the gates and nothing happened. I waited and waited and then went to see if Chris was okay. The umbrella had blown off the boat into the canal and instead of floating away gracefully, it sank. A boat hook was required to retrieve it. It was no wetter when it came out than it was went it went in!
There is nothing more to say apart from - 'Will someone please turn off the tap'!!!
