Good start to the morning with lots of sunshine, but still chilly. Stopped briefly at Rugby for a food shop. The wind started to increase so we moored past Barby Wood bridge No.78, having seen Brian Jarrett's boat Autarky moored up we decided to stop and we spent a pleasant afternoon with him with lots to catch up on.

We briefly moored at Brownsover for a food shop at Tesco's
When we returned from our food shop, we spotted Brian Jarrett moored in front of us, so we had a brief chat, then he passed us on his way to the winding hole
