As we picked up the gas bottle the locks suddenly got busy with three boats coming past. We followed them all the way to Wheelock. Yesterday's sunshine had been replaced by mist which gradually rose throughout the day.

The journey to Middlewich was relatively uneventful - we arrived around 4.00PM and moored up on the visitor moorings just above Kings Lock. We walked around the town and found that it has loads of fast food outlets from Fish & Chips to Balti and Chinese and sadly lots of litter as a result. Tomorrow we go to Anderton. We have booked our trip down the lift onto the River Weaver for Sunday.
