Left our last nights mooring to a cloudy day, we have decided not to go so far today, as in the next week we want to reach Leamington Spa so I can catch the train home and pick up the car before returning back to the boat, and at the moment we are too far ahead in our schedule, so only moving little steps for this week.
We stop for a top up of water here we hear an almighty crash, as the television has come off its cupboard and unfortunately has been broken so no telly tonight,so another night of talking to my wife .........
We then set off down the canal and Denise must dust of her lock key as its not been used for a while, but at the first lock help is on hand, as its manned/ womanned by a lock keeper. The other two locks she must work though as no help, so again on we plod for a few more miles and we find a nice place to moor, but after looking at the map we find just behind the hedge is a prison, H.M.P. Rye Hill to be precise a category B prison, might book myself in for the night as I notice they have play stations available for use .
Prison in the distance
So listening to the IPod and doing crosswords tonight.
See you tomorrow
