Every bridge we went under we were guaranteed another boat coming in the opposite direction. A few ‘WAH WAH’s’ on the claxon were needed’
There were lots of embankments and cuttings today. There was luscious green foliage everywhere you looked and very muddy towpaths also which one brave dog owner decided to walk through. Sunny hats were required but also wellies for any towpath walker.
Looks like someone else has been busy knitting with colourful looking mushrooms on their boat, made to actually look like toadstools/mushrooms.
The canals are getting busy again. Lots of hire boaters about, everyone in such a calm and peaceful mood as the weather was glorious.
These guys definitely got their catch of the day.
We had lunch on the roof again whilst we were travelling which we love when it is glorious weather like this. Later on I sat on the top of the roof, knitting away with the radio on. We even had a sing song to some good songs on the radio and Roy even started dancing!! That was soooo embarrassing! Days of stressful living seem a thing of the past.
We are so enjoying this trip, travelling as much or as little as we want to. No schedule to keep to, it is very relaxing.
It has been a very enjoyable day. I even said to Roy “isn’t it nice just enjoying each other’s company without chatting away”……..His reply was, “ Yes, I prefer it that way!!”

- We saw our first boat moored at Gnosall.
