Water, water, everywhere

Saturday morning and early morning shadows over the fields. 


We decided to move down through the lock to find a signal for some Saturday night TV. 


After moving the boat we walked into Great Haywood for a few basics from the shops. There are 2 shops in the village and, luckily, what one didn't have, the other did. But, before that, lunch at the Lockside Restaurant. Lovely homemade food with bread and butter pudding for afters. 


These houses were built around the turn of the 18thC when the old village of Shugborough was bought up and demolished by the Anson family. 


An old milepost in the village. 


Sheltering under the bridge during a brief afternoon shower. But ...


... when we got back to the boat, the heavens opened, thunder and all. No more going out today!
