Well we’ve moved onto Wedgewood only to find that the museum is closed until June so we’ll have to look in next time we’re passing. Otherwise a very pleasant day, sunny and starting to get warmer (broke out the sandals today!). 8 locks done today which were relatively easy although Meaford Bottom Lock and Meaford House locks were a bit like going around a threepenny bit (or the new pound coin when it comes out!). To go into the bottom lock was around a corner and then it was around another corner through a very short pound into Meaford House lock. The second was assisted by the boat that was moored in the pound emptying the lock for us to get into, although there was a bit of self-interest there since the previous boat going down had left them almost aground (that is how short that pound was!).

Tomorrow it will be on to Stoke and Westport Park which I remember being a good mooring from the last time we passed through.
