Well can’t believe it was almost a week ago that I last posted.  Time does seem to fly by.  On Friday we went to Midland Chandlers and spent a small fortune!  We have now replaced our batteries and life had much improved.  We were having to run our engine for several hours a day to have enough power for lights, water pump and some TV/computer time.  So different now.  We can even use 2 lights at once.  ha ha :o)  
We have now cruised on to Rugby.  Stopped for 3 nights at Clifton which is the home to Clifton Cruisers, which as well as being a boat hire place has a cafe/gift shop.  There is also a hairdresser which I made good use of, not before time.  Was also able to do some washing.  On the Sunday the guy that owns the place was running a small steam train around the car park.  Paul was quite fascinated and spent a while chatting about the building of it.  On Monday we walked into the centre of Rugby for a look around the shops.  We did give in and catch the bus back!  Yesterday we moved on to the other side of Rugby and are now moored by Tesco so will be getting in some shopping later.  There is also Wickes, Maplin and The Range near by.  Will probably stay here for a couple of nights before heading on to Coventry.
