Well since Thursday we have been steadily pressing on.  Enjoying the glorious sunshine.  We have had 2 sets of five locks.  The Tyrley Locks leading us down into Market Drayton and then another set at Adderley.  As we have mostly been away from towns, just the occasional small village, so our phone and internet coverage has been a bit hit and miss.  Today we have descended 14 of the 15 locks at Audlem.  A very pretty village.  Went for a walk there earlier and had lunch in the Old Priest House.  We  had planned to travel a bit further today, to moor for the night in the same place we had stayed several years ago in a hire boat.   However that was a very open area so today we opted to stay here by the trees and enjoy the shade!  Not often you say that in England.  Just 3 more locks and we will be in Nantwich where we plan to stay for a couple of days.
