Congerstone to Snarestone Wharf

 This morning we left Congerstone at 8:25am. Winded and moored at the present terminus of the canal at Snarestone wharf at 10.35am, 2hrs 10mins, no locks. /// motor.clog.restores

Dull start again this morning bit of slight drizzle, but the sun eventually appeared. Had a nice long chat with Michael Wooding who we haven't seen for years.
