Sawley to Ragley Boat Stop

Late start after a hard day yesterday. Shower, fill up with water, pump out and head off up the Trent & Mersey. Spent some money in the chandlery replace fender lost earlier in the week. It was almost lunchtime before we left. Derwent Mouth lock was a nightmare, three boats ahead of is, two at the top waiting to come down and by the time it was our turn we had a large working boat tied up to us as I walked back to the boat. The most sensible action was to wave the through ahead of us as we were in no rush and it would have been difficult to extricate our boat from inside the working boat. By the time we had made it past Swalkstone lock we were both exhausted, so stopped at the Ragley Boat Stop. I think that the week is catching up with us, we are still doing to much in a day. We have to change our attitude!!
