A very easy day today. We set off at our usual 7:00 start and arrived here at 11:30.

A short wait at Grindley Brook staircase for 4 to come down before the lockie let us up.

We needed a pumpout, but the machine  was on the wrong side. Luckily there is a winding hole at the top lock. So Heddi expertly winded and reversed to the pumpout machine . We did the PO then back to the  winding hole around again and back on our way.

After mooring up in the Whitchurch Arm we walked into town in search of a new phone. Tesco was useless as all the smart phones were ‘out of stock”.

Luckily we noticed a small phone shop. Dan the proprietor was extremely helpful and supplied me with a Samsung J1 for a very reasonable  £80.  Thanks Dan.

So now I’ll be able to add photos again! !
