Turned off the Oxford Canal at Napton Junction onto the Grand Union towards Birmingham. Went down Calcutt locks on our own, then part way down Stockton locks we caught up with a solo boater and shared down to Long Itchington, where we moored just after 11am.
Walked to the Harvester Inn for lunch (no it's not one of those, it's a real pub).
After lunch we carried on through Leomington Spa, which has no GBG pubs, to Warwick, which has three.
Stopped briefly at Tescos to top up my phone and buy provisions, then moored in my usual spot between the two Cape locks and went to The Cape of Good Hope for the evening.
It was very hot in the dining area and a party of 20 boys plus minders were booked in for their evening meal. They were off (at least) 2 Calcutt boats which we had seen arrive.
