Eight o’clock and we were setting off down the river. It had rained heavily overnight and we were still getting odd showers. The trip down the Severn from Worcester to Tewkesbury isn’t particularly interesting! There is not much to see because of tne high flood banks. On arrival at Avon lock we had a bit of a delay as the lock keepers Internet was down. All Avon licences now have to be bought online. The ANT “Welcome boat” had working Internet so we handed over our £50s and got back an email licence!

Moorings were in short supply, but we managed to squeeze in a space and Simon breasted up with us.
