Braunston top lock to the pub! (The Admiral Nelson) 4 locks, 1/2 mile!

Exhaust happy, (see previous post if you have no recollection of this latest epic) we plodded down 4 locks to find a lovely mooring just down from the pub.


Spring is finally here! (sorry for sarcasm)

So, no we didn't spend the last few days in said pub, we caught up on much needed painting and fender making, like good little liveaboards.
We had our first delivery from Asda this week, going without a hitch, being unloaded to us on the canal bridge beside our mooring.  (Don't worry, it's not a used bridge, more of an access road)

Trouble is with online ordering, Richard ordered a quiche and it turned up as an Individual Quiche for one, which obviously he wouldn't have ordered, had he been in store.

What I'm trying to say is, it's easy to get some things wrong, when you can't see the packet size in real life!  And, the tray of eggs we bought, turned out to be 30 eggs not a dozen!
Whoops!! So we had omellette for breakfast.....


Things are getting busy on the canal approaching Braunston junction!

The Braunston Historic Boat Rally  is taking place this weekend, so we are hoping to entice a few people ambling to the pub, with our wares!

We will have to see what happens this weekend, then we plan to amble back towards Stoke Bruerne again to meet up with other trader friends and hopefully have a busy few days.
