This herd had a bit of a paddle before the water receded, we were quite worried about them, but they were in the next field the following day, so the farmer had moved them in time!
Richard was taken by this duck, partly because it reminded him of our old collie/greyhound lurcher Shep.
Indeed....
Checking the water level each day, we discovered that the green marker was visible again! Not for long, it went back up again shortly after this, but the weather had improved hinting at a calmer river in the next few days.
Much better!
No damage done to the park either.
Beautiful, well looked after graveyard with very old headstones dating back to early 1800s.
Tranquil moorings in Alrewas. We always enjoy it here.
Chocolate box houses...
Ummm, Sunday dinner on the Cobb!
Monday morning, the water was well down in the green, encouraging us to press on downstream towards Branston Water Park. The butty towed behind the motor like it was on the canal, no problem! It is amazing the difference waiting a week can make!
