A dry sunny start to the day and we set off for the short trip to Chirk.

We like the way that the tunnel information board states that the tunnel is two-way working. I don’t think so somehow"!

The moorings on the north side of the tunnel have just been refurbished, in fact they were still working on them when we came up last week.

But as can be seen they need dredging!

After lunch we walked up into Chirk.

Those moorings at Chirk are a huge improvment. They were a complete quagmire when we were there a couple of years ago.

They sure are an improvement.
