Weston on Trent



Here I am Rune
Distance 8 miles
Total 2622 Locks  122 Tunnels
Running total mileage 3628.3 miles 

Once again we have got as far as we needed to today, target was Hoo Mill Lock and we are getting on for 3 miles (and 1 lock) beyond that, so we have effectively done a quarter of tomorrows mileage as well.

With only 3 locks to do it pretty much a case of just admiring the scenery, and some of it (Tixall House Gatehouse) was quite impressive. Had to catch up on a couple of domestic chores today, topped up with water, empty the elsan cassette and put cleaning solution into it, this is the last of the three cassettes to get the treatment.

The target for tomorrow is bridge 92 which is just this side of Stone but I would imagine that we will be reaching Stone itself at the very least.
