Tixall Lock, to Bridge No.90 Coventry Canal near Fradley

 What a change from yesterday, light drizzle all day which turned heavier when we got to Fradley junction. Was nice to see Andy and Andrea on Achilles as they passed by us, Andy very kindly set the next 3 locks for us, what a star ⭐. Now moored near bridge No.90 Fradley on the Coventry canal.

15 miles 6 locks in 8hrs 35mins. what3words ///wiggling.kebabs.reserving 😁

I wonder if the driver realises he has lost the rest of the carriages?

We stopped briefly at Rugeley to do a food shop at Aldi, where us poor people shop
