A dull grey start to the morning at the top lock of the Hatton flight.
St. Marys church, Warwick, just about perceivable in the gloom.
Back home again.
Many thanks to Sean who came and lock wheeled for us, it was very much appreciated.
Keith.
Cracking weather to be cruising on Boxing Day.

An even better day today than yesterday, lots of sunshine and blue skies.
Approaching Kingswood junction.
Turning into the Kingswood link for the Stratford Canal.
Lock 21 is still out of use so I had to use lock 20 on the main Stratford Canal instead.
Loads of blue skies.
Even more blue skies.
The sun is there.
Still more blue skies.
Jo’s favourite lock cottage.
The lift bridge before Swallow Cruisers.
Winding completed, I don’t like this winding hole as you have to reverse into the bridge ole, at least I got to wave to Hannah and Alistair.
Now moored below the top lock, ready for Christmas.
Keith.
This morning we set off on our Christmas Cruise. Weather was dull to start with.
Leaving Saltisford Arm.
It wasn’t very warm, but bearable.
The start of the main flight.
Hatton Depot.
the last couple of locks it started to lightly drizzle, which continued until we passed through Shrewley tunnel, after which we even had some blue skies.
Know moored at the Tom o’ the Wood Moorings. Popped into Tom o’ the Wood for a pint before dinner.
Keith.
