London bound
We left Audlem on Monday morning, and finished the last 11 locks before lunch, after food we did the 5 at Adderley then cruised to Market Drayton. As we arrived I saw a sign for diesel so decided to fill up, 84.5 litres @ 64 ppl not bad. Stopped 2 days at MD, Left on Weds morn did the 5 Tyrley locks and went up to Goldstone Wharf stopped 2 days, left Fri am and had a hard day battling up to Norbury Junction against a very strong cross wind which tried it's best to park us on the bank but didn't succeed. We will stay here till Monday, this week we have done18 miles & 21 locks, we aren't rushing because we are waiting for NB Bendigedig to catch us up, they are leaving Sandbach today, so should be with us in a couple of weeks. See you next week

Hi Alan and Eiddwen - I've finally found out how a blog works !!
Your blog is nicely laid out and I
found it very interesting and enjoyed reading about your journey. Your dunking didn't sound much fun as the water must have been freezing.
Will keep reading
Philip
