Did We Get a Soaking?

Audlem Well it rained and rained and rained last night. Heard there was flooding back in Stoke. Due to the severe weather we couldn’t get any signal last night for phones or internet so yesterday’s blog wasn’t published till this morning … where the sun was out again!!

So the answer to the title of tonight’s blog is no. We managed to miss the rain yet again. Moored up just past OverWater Marina at Audlem where we have done all 15 locks today and then guess what… it started to rain. Perfect timing again. We honestly cannot believe our luck.

Called in at Audlem Mill whilst filling up with water. I bought wool and Roy bought a book. I am knitting some more roses. The boat will soon look like a knitted garden centre!

Wish got the remains of a rose that went wrong because I knitted it on too bigger needles. Don’t think Wish was at all impressed. Funny though!

Made my best friends Janet & Angus a tiller Tassel.

All in all another great day. I can’t believe it has been one week since we left the marina. It has gone far too quick. Tomorrow is going to be quite exciting because after the next 2 locks we will be on new waters. Really looking forward to all the new sights and photo opportunities over the next few days.

    • Hi you two!! Are you sure the red isn’t from that slap I asked you give Angus??? Glad you had a fab day though despite the weather. Ask Angus if he wants a spare tiller tassel in pink? With a rose attached?? I have knitted so many roses now I am going to have a rose garden on the boat!! Xxxxx
