Day 38 - Hassall Green

Friday 10th July

4 miles, 15 locks


Nice summer house at Red Bull
Alarm set for 7.20 as we want to get on down as many locks as possible before mooring up to watch Wimbledon semis. Murray lost to an outstanding Federer!











Early morning water stop at Red Bull services

















Locking again

The locks on this stretch are mostly paired. Met a nice lady from nb Betty Sturgees also liveaboards. We worked a few locks together. Weather gorgeous and scenery goo the flora has changed again the herb willow is out. Still ducklings a plenty in various sizes.

Did 15 locks before mooring at Hassall Green - a bit near the M6 but still!

Had a wander around village which was quite dead half of it seems to be for sale and the Roaming Donkey was not only closed but appeared to be falling down.

Warm enough to sit out but the evenings are already getting shorter.
