A night in Rugeley

Stafford Boat Club

Well everything went amazingly according to plan, except we were made so welcome at the boat club we ended up staying 2 nights! You can't see us in the picture as we are moored out on the main line of the canal. Sunday we moved on to Tixall Wide. My favourite spot on the canals. We were there about this time last year.

Yesterday we arrived in Rugeley. A place we have visited many times before. So far back that in our cruising book we have made a note that Tesco will open in 2013! Currently we are moored very close to said supermarket and are about to head off for supplies! It is the last large supermarket we will be close to for a while.
After much changing of plans we think we have finally determined our summer route. So we are now headed towards Nottingham and so on to the River Trent.
