A routine sort of day

There’s not a whole lot to say today; as planned, we set off in good time this morning and boated to Rugeley where we shopped. By the time we’d done that and put it all away, it was nearly lunchtime, so we did.

Then it was on to King’s Bromley, where we’ve stopped on the towpath for the night. Some rescued driftwood was cut up, and I fitted a new head on the deck brush. We’ve spent the rest of the afternoon pottering around doing odd jobs and IT stuff. One thing that's struck us is that there seems to be more traffic since we passed Great Haywood junction than there was on the Four Counties ring, partly because there are now three active hire yards (Shakespeare, Aqua and Canaltime) between here and Trent Junction.

In the morning, we’ll carry on down to Fradley for a couple of days, then go on to Alrewas on Sunday for medical stuff next week.
