To confuse matters there are two ‘Weston’ locks on tne Trent and Mersey canal. We are moored just above the more northerly one, near Weston Upon Trent.
Today has been the coldest boating day we can remember in over 20 years. Ususally I dont feel the cold too much, but today I had five layers on (thermal vest, long sleeved tee shirt, sweatshirt, fleece & gillet) and hat & gloves. But I still felt cold. It was the icy wind that was the problem. At one point we even had a flurry of snow!
