Fazeley

Batteries down to 52 overnight, so didn't run the Webasto in the morning. Ran the engine for an hour after the BCF communion service, as there wasn't much sign of sun. SG gave the SOC as 65 after that, and then some sunshine pushed it up to 70 by late afternoon.

Gas bottle ran out first thing. We'd noted that it was low as we got to Fazeley, and that the other bottle was also not full. We assumed that the Gibsons had switched bottles, without us registering it, so both would be empty. Consequence: no tea for breakfast. However, I looked at the other bottle when we got back after the service, and it appeared to have some gas. Perhaps the Gibsons had switched bottles before the old one was empty. So we had gas for today.

Waste tank light came on in the afternoon. We're told we can get gas and a pump-out in the morning at the marina just a few hundred on from our mooring.
