It can be a little chilly in the evenings now and\u00a0although we haven&#8217;t lit the fire yet, at least we are ready for it! Sunday night we spent just outside Loughborough as we wanted to get some shopping there the next day. We spent so long titting about with the shopping (and\u00a0taking George\u00a0to the pub at Normanton!) that we only made it as far as the &#8216;Flightpath Moorings&#8217; at Kegworth last night. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Today we stopped at Trent Lock, which isn&#8217;t very far from Kegworth, ostensibly to empty the cassette and the\u00a0rubbish and fill up with water before venturing on to the Trent and Mersey. But as usual there was a pub nearby that\u00a0George \u00a0just had to visit (obviously we had to go with him!) and by the time we had had lunch (actually very hard baguettes that even George had trouble eating!) and a couple of pints (one that\u00a0was the wrong beer!), done some boat tidying\u00a0and\u00a0had a cup of tea,\u00a0we really couldn&#8217;t be bothered to go anywhere else today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">So although we can see the Trent and Mersey Canal, we are not really on it &#8230;&#8230;yet! Maybe tomorrow?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Cheers B.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here we are at Trent Lock, having left Thurmaston on Sunday instead of Monday we may have expected to be a bit further on than this by now!
