Shroppie Bridge 7 to Gailey

Another hot day once the thin cloud burnt off. Queued at Autherley Junction to get through the lock, and had a most unpleasant encounter with a boat coming in who didn't want to have to leave me enough room to turn left. Apart from that, all plain sailing. Tied up at Gailey with the bows just encroaching on the permanent moorings, so will probably need to ask the boat behind to move back a bit when they return.

10.9 miles, 1 lock, 4.5 hours engine time.
