Wightwick to Swindon

Heavy rain in the night, but decks virtually dry in the morning – Brazilian conditions. Dry as we travelled down through the Bratch, but began to drip a little rain shortly before we decided to call a halt for the day. After we tied up below Swindon lock it came on to rain very heavily.

Got a TV signal for the Euros match!

SG was unusually low at 77% in the morning The only difference I could see was that the computer charger had been connected all night. SG showed 100% by the time we finished travelling.

Heard today that Wilson's have moved from Kinver to Stourbridge in the last few weeks. So the journey may have lost its main rationale. We'll need to ring them.

5.9 miles, 11 locks, 4.5 hours
