Passing the end of the Stratford Canal
After an overnight stop at Alvechurch we pulled into Hopwood on Thursday with the intention of a quick coffee stop. However when we popped to the nearby garage for milk we saw the Hopwood House Inn did 2 steaks and a bottle of wine on a Thursday for £22. So we decided it was too good to pass by. So Friday saw us through Wast Hill Tunnel mooring at Kings Norton.

Passed this group of fungi this morning
Yesterday we got the bus to Cotteridge to use the launderette we have used before. Unlike Paul I still have to pay bus fare, so when it cost £3 for a day rider we decided to get our money worth. So after a trip back on board for lunch we were back on the bus to Northfield.  As it's further from the canal we had not been there before. More shops than we expected. We managed to buy a few bits!
Busy working
Today with the clocks changing we were awake early so setting off just after 9! Arriving at Bournville and managing to get a mooring on the offside visitor moorings Paul has taken advantage to paint one side of the hull.  Always something to do 😎
