Middlewich.

After 14 locks  and sheer exhaustion yesterday we deliberately chose to have a quiet day today, consisting of 4 locks and some gentle cruising, ending mid-afternoon just outside Middlewich. The Trent and Mersey here is very wide, with a mixture of industry and farming scenery. We intend filling with diesel at Kings Lock chandlery, Middlewich in the morning although we still have half a tank remaining .  Today was cooler with sunshine and light showers.

I have been requested to confirm our kettle is merely mis-coloured rather than mis-shaped ,which I am happy to do.
