The Hunters Moon rising over the prison moorings.

After finding the mooring it was decided to go to the Plough in Braunston High Street for food which proved a good idea.

A misty start this morning as we cruised into Braunston hoping to find a mooring to take on supplies finding the last mooring just after the turning point, Craig has his work cut out tomorrow to reverse back.

Today on to Napton where Craig winded the boat and on the return passing the entrance to the Grand Union which leads to Birmingham.

Yesterday we did a quick pit stop in Braunston and then to travel on to the South Oxford Canal on a very damp day to stop just after Bridge 102.

Today we tackled Hilmorton Locks, there has been more boat traffic than we saw on our previous journey.

Yesterday we started our possible last cruise on The Maisibert before she goes on sale, with Craig aboard our cruise finished at Clifton and having homemade squash soup made from a squash supplied by Lynda.

Pictures from a cold and windy Brinklow Bash which was opened by A DEL, Cassie and Ruby made appearence for a little while.

There was a good selection of different types of music and also raised over a £1000 for Prostate Cancer.

As a prelude to the Brinklow Bash is an open mic. night which Craig has joined us for.

Made it back to a very breezy marina.

Last night we moored at Bridge 5 which means the sun is setting on our trip.

 

After getting up and washing two thirds of the boat we set off to tackle the eleven locks in front of us, but because of the number of boats in front of us which meant we had to empty and refill locks add a couple of single handed boaters coming down made it feel like sixteen locks.

Today we left Peels Wharf mooring up at lock 11 at Atherstone, we had to pass through the Boat Festival having sqeeze between moored boats and the boat and butty that we followed the other day.
