Yesterday we travelled from Grindley Brook to Wrenbury (6 miles + 2 locks)
The weather was overcast and we did stop once because of a downpour, which we sat out.
Once again we had no internet.

Today we travelled 9 miles including 9 locks and 2 swing bridges.

We have now left the Llangollen canal and joined the Shropshire Union. We are heading home.

We moored up near Nantwich and walked into the town. A typical Cheshire town with black and white buildings, lovely to spend an afternoon in such a grand place. We had a lovely evening meal in a local pub, then walked back to the boat.

The evenings are getting shorter, and we are having to use torches. We have re-stocked the tealights, and the fire is lit most nights.

Tomorrow we are heading for Audlem, a canal town with bustling pubs and entertainment. We then have the Audlem & Adderley locks to contend with. (19 in total) before reaching Market Drayton, here we hope to spend a few days.
