Set off at 9.15 having got some milk at the boatyards shop. Down to Barbridge junction where we turned on to the Middlewich branch. Stopped at the first boatyard to get gas, as we had emptied one cylinder this morning.
Stopped again Venetian marine where I bought a couple of bits in their well stocked Aquafax chandlery.
Stopped near bridge 14 to walk into Church Minshull for lunch at the Badger. However we found that it is closed until further notice.
Back to the boat, set off and had soup while under way.
Turned south in Middlewich to go up the Trent and Mersey. We were going to stop for a pint in the pub at Rumps Lock, but this was closed and displaying To Let signs. So we carried on in the rain to Wheelock.
Went to the Nags Head to eat, then to the Commercial Hotel and finally a pint of Hydes in the Cheshire Cat.
