Up at 8 and got under way just in time to beat two other boats setting off, who would have left all the locks set against us.
Caught up with another boat which had been moored at Newton Harcourt, and we shared the last 5 locks up to Saddington Tunnel.
Carried on through the tunnel and moored at the southern end. Walked up the hill for lunch in the Queens Head in Saddington village.
Carried on to Foxton where we moored opposite the Inn. Left the water tank filling whilst we went for a pint in the BW refurbished Inn and a mooch round the Inclined plane.
Then went up the Market Harborough arm to Market Harborough where we winded and moored for the night. Went to the Sugar Loaf (Wetherspoons) to eat, then on to the Cherry Tree.
