Sunday 14th September - 14 miles, 3 locks
Still busy at Braunston the boat has been hit at least three times that we know of.
Cruised to Hilmorton - three locks. Moored for lunch. Canal centre looked exciting but was disappointing everything was closed. Had lunch on the grass in the sun. Lady on the next boat dropped her house and car keys into the canal. Fortunately we had a magnet on board and she retrieved the keys from the water.
Decided to cruise on to Tescos but no mooring. Then onto the co-op - no mooring. Very difficult to find a mooring as there is a shelf and a lot of silt along the canal edge. Eventually moored near Brinklow after a 14 mile cruise. As we were mooring Paul noticed the boat in front of us had a cage outside containing two chickens.
Enjoyed blackberry and apple crumble for dessert using the blackberries I picked on Friday.
