We set off today at 0730 (late for us, but whatever). Set off down Farmers Locks, all but 2 against us. Hadn't realised until today that you can see the Council House and Museum from Saturday Bridge.
The weather was lovely and sunny after a slightly chilly first thing and mist hiding the top of the BT tower, so the lock wheeling was fairly pleasant.
We were absolutely knackered by the time we got to bottom of the Milnworth locks and stopped just after the winding hole on pilings, a bit shallow, but as there were no boats around we didn't get grounded. And it was straight to bed for a couple of hours to recover from all those locks.
It was so nice to be out in the country again (apart from being under the flightpath for Birmingham Airport), and got to see a proper sunset for a change.
I know it's long gone now, but here is a Mother's Day card made with a Flower Fairy picture, lots of flowers and a yellow bow. Mind you, looking at it again, with that sentiment, it could be a birthday card or a thank you card as well.
