Lowsonford to Kingswood

Left about midday, when it seemed it might be dry for a few hours – and so it transpired. Turned right at Kingswood junction, to spend an extra day before going up the Lapworth flight. Mistook the main junction with the Grand Union for the one Nicholson's indicated there would be with the branch through lock 20, so started off down to Warwick, and had to reverse. Tied up just north of Kingswood Bridge. Good TV and Three signals. Ran the engine for an hour in the evening to guarantee being able to watch Murray.

2.75 miles, 9 locks, 4 hours engine
