Day 7 - Rugeley to Little Hayward

Tuesday 9th June

4 miles, 1 lock

Strolled into Rugeley still looks run down. There was a market on in the square. Only bought some soya mince and a birthday card for Spike.

Started to cruise late morning - a lot of boats on the move and moored so progress slow. Got to Little Hayward where we stopped for lunch and didn't get going again! Paul sat out and played his guitar until his fingers froze and I did a jigsaw. It was so cold that we actually resorted to lighting the fire.

Happy in her work

Time for a little music

Strolled into village in the evening for a pre dinner drink both pubs very quiet - still it is a Tuesday. Watched the end of the cricket - big win for England at Edgebaston over New Zealand. Weather still cool and wind still an issue - they are promising better over the next couple of days.
