It was really cold this morning, but the sun came out this afternoon and it has warmed up a bit.

We had been moored up for a while when an old working boat came past very quickly and very fast. We rocked about so much that things fell off of shelves and out of cupboards. The boat moored up about 100yds ahead. I went up to talk to the boater about the excessive speed. He response was “I can go 4mph on the canals and 6mph on rivers”. The boat was in a very poor state of repair. The old boater looked pretty rough too!

We walked over to Limekiln Chandlery to get a replacement chimney, but they didnt have one our size, so we decided to try Midland Chandlers in Penkridge later in the week.
