Another uneventful day, just a lazy sort of Sunday really. To comply with the maximum mooring time on the Sheepcote mooring (48 hours) we’ve moved back to the Brindley Place mooring where we again have a maximum of 48 hours. It seems that there isn’t a general compliance with these limits since the boat that moored in front of us at Brindley Place back on Wednesday is still here along with another boat outside of Ballantyne’s Gym. Both of the boats moored at Sheepcote have also been here since we arrived on Wedneday but to save any argument I’m quite happy to move within the limits, particularly since there isn’t any restriction on returning. The intention is only to stay to the end of the week, still well within the 14 day maximum at a particular location, if Gas Street isn’t open by then we’ll have to set off down Farmer’s locks and go that way round.
Tomorrow should be a bit busier in terms of ‘boaty’ stuff to since we now need to refill the water tank, dispose of the rubbish and empty the Elsan cassettes as well as getting a few bags of coal in.
