A while by Mercia Marina

We spent a lovely weekend in Alrewas Catching up with Paul's RAF entry.  On Friday we had visitors for lunch, and in the evening 13 of us met up in the British Legion Club

"The Gang" at the National Memorial Arboretum

for a meal and a
natter.  We were very blessed with the weather on Saturday for our visit to the Arboretum.  15 of us gathered for a wander around.  Photo is courtesy of George, so he isn't in the pic.  What a rabble!
Some more of the guys made it on board for a cuppa at various times, so all in all a very enjoyable weekend.

Since then we don't seem to have travelled very far.  Paul has had 2 vertigo attacks, but meanwhile we now have Falcon up for sale.  Just privately at the moment, but think we will probably end up with
a broker.  We pulled into Mercia Marina

The willow spiral at Mercia Marina

yesterday to buy a replacement gas valve, staying on their visitor moorings until Paul had fitted it, just in case he needed any more bits.  So with having lunch there it was about 4 by the time we left, so we moored for the night just outside.  Back there today to use the internet!

Hopefully tomorrow we will be making our way towards Shardlow.
