Sykes Hollow to Nantwich

Cloudy but fine in the morning. Set off about 10, got a wash going and was able to fill up with water at Burbridge Junction – better pressure than I remember in Nantwich itself. Also was able to buy some CRT pump-out tokens at Midway Boats.

Tied up on the visitor moorings on a straight bit of the long curve at Nantwich. Got the washing out drying on the tow path until the rain started and we brought it under the cover. Walked down to Morrisons / Aldi in Nantwich once the rain had stopped. Ran the engine for an hour in the evening.

6 miles, 1 lock, 4.7 hours engine.
