May Day Bank Holiday trip to Whitchurch (Monday 2/5/2016)

Engine reading at end of day: 191.4hr Miles:11 Locks:15

Up early to tidy boat for arrival of crew. Alison arrived around 09:15. Coffee before setting off.

Trouble-free trip back to home base. Weather mix of warm sunny intervals between showers; sometimes heavy. Progress a good deal quicker with crew!

Paused at Wrenbury around 13:00 for a swift pint at the Dusty Miller followed by BLT sandwiches back on board.

Done with engines by 17:00. Cup of tea before loading car and driving back to Wrenbury to collect Alison's car. Went via Marbury to see if Swan is actually open or not. Mixed evidence on the internet. Does seem to be open.

Travelled back home in convoy.
