Atherstone to Nuneaton

Did a bedding wash in an Atherstone launderette, and completed the shopping in Co-op and Aldi. Got under way by 11.30, and had good help up the 5 locks from volunteers and boaters coming down. Cloudy and damp with some moisture in the air.

Stopped briefly at Springwood Haven Marina to get a 25A fuse and a Jubilee clip. Tied up after Bridge 23 in order to walk to Midland Chandlers HQ at Century Park, to pick up the items I ordered over the phone yesterday. Shower pump working again with replacement fuse.

Counter: 419.0

5.5 miles, 5 locks, 3.2 engine hours
