Well we are moving again and at a cracking pace, over three miles and one lock. Mind you we couldn’t see where we were going or where we had been so the cracking pace was painfully slow, if we hadn’t needed water we would not have bothered. We were being followed by another boat and it may just be possible to see their headlights in the photos below.
We did pass a Kingfisher that just sat there looking miserable in the heavy mist, unfortunately I did not have time to change the lens to get a close up.
Turners garage were selling diesel at 53.4 p a litre so we just had to fill up, that is the cheapest we have paid in over a year so we may well be back for more.
By the time we had moored up it was approaching three o’clock so we set off for a brisk 3 mile walk encompassing 9 Geocaches, I see from the logs that Sue from No Problem had been here before us. By the time we got back into Wheaton Aston the light was beginning to fade but there was still enough for us to admire some of the houses in this pretty little village. It was so quiet with very few cars and like Brewood (pronounced Brood) you could not hear the noise coming from the A5.
