Back at Poynton Good Friday courtesy of Enterprise ( we pick you up and drop you off ) really good so no car with us this time left our mooring  on Saturday morning and travelled down to Gurnett aquaduct ready for the lock flight on Sunday. Twelve locks down  nearly five miles and one day , tonight moored at Dane Aquaduct . Monday onwards to Congleton on the Trent Mersey ready for Tuesday twenty two locks and seven miles down to Wheelock for a well earned nights rest .
Wednesday onwards to Middlewich and turned onto the Shropshire Middlewich branch ready for our meeting with the safety inspection engineer at church Minshull on Thursday .
Fantastic , survey passed that`s it for four years now , £150 pound well spent  so turn around and head back to Middlewich and then to Anderton and the lift down onto the River Weaver to complete our tour of the river starting tomorrow  .

Today has been declared the first day of summer after yet another long sunny day , I went for a shower and shave tonight  and then  broke out the shorts , might regret it yet , 

We both are well sunned ie pair of red traffic lights .

Spring has sprung lamb chops on legs get the mint sauce 

This years spring flowers including Hilarys birthday basket ,  looking good 

A misty start to Tuesday
