Shroppie Bridge 7/8 to Wheaton Aston

Cloudy day, no rain. Came to Wheaton Aston for fuel and water, and hopefully to fit the window. Stopped off for shopping in Brewood, had a coffee in the Bistro (don't ever order a flat white there again) and bought two ham salad subs from the bakery. At WA we queued for an hour for the lock, and then got dog dirt on trainers while re-fuelling, which necessitated a walk back to the water-point for cleaning. By the time we'd tied up on the 48 hour moorings opposite Turner's, we didn't feel like working.

56.3 litres of diesel.

5 miles, 1 lock, 4.3 engine hours
