Today we broke our mooring filled up with water and the purchased two bags of coal at £11.65 each the last time we bought coal was when we were first together in the flat a bag use to cost about 50 p or 4 books green shield stamps or a bundle of Cigarette coupons.
Anyway we left Norbury and again no locks today Denise is having a life of luxury, we travel through Grub Street cutting where the canal is enclosed by dense vegetation and under this very high bridge which carries the A519 over it.
We carry on past the Anchor Inn Which hardly changed in a hundred years, then through Shebdon embankment onto Knighton where the Wharf here was built for Cadburys dried milk factory,
we then stopped at Goldstone Wharf and moored up I then used the bike to go back to fetch the car, I think that we should of bought the more expensive bike because it was hard going through the muddy footpath and my bum is sore from the saddle and lack of suspension .
We then had dinner and then went to the pub the Wharf Inn where we had a great night after meeting two other boat owners couples Rob and Liz and Chris and Saraha .
