Found a lot of bird dirt on the roof in the morning. Nice timing on a lot of the locks with boats coming the other way. Were fortunate to get away just ahead of a rather fussy boat coming up Filance Lock. Got a pump out from JD at Gailey. No rinse, but blue was included in the £18. Then filled the water tank and cleaned the roof with the hose. Uneventful run through to Pendeford, though had to pass an oncoming boat in the narrows. Tied up just after Marsh Lane Bridge as usual – no company.
9.3 miles, 5 locks, 5 engine hours.
