Last night was spent in the village of Willington quite a noisy place as it has a main line railway running through high up in the air on an embankment above the houses  we are around twenty yards from it yet the noise became quite relaxing as the trains seem to creep up on you and the noise reaches a peak and then fades slowly away  so it didn`t bother us at all .
Despite yet another poor forecast , this morning is dry and sunny not had a bad day yet.
 Sybil is going into a marina over here  next week and  we are taking a hire car over to Poynton , collecting our car and then back home for a couple of weeks .
Tonight we are at Weston lock , rural no lights roads or railways lovely.
Tomorrow  we might get down onto the river Trent fifty yards wide and even in its low level seemingly fast flowing compared to the canals.


               Here`s an aquaduct we crossed today complete with pill box that will keep em out




Moored tonight in peace and quiet 




Tea last night beef stir fry and garlic bread lovely 




Our neighbor last night but not a train in sight when I wanted to photo one just a mile of empty track in each direction
