The Leaving of Liverpool

Hi All

In the words of the great sea shanty  “Its not the leaving of Liverpool the grieves me” but the awful weather conditions that we did it in.

Last night we had a bit of a DO on buggerlugs we had Steph Phil and Emily onboard for dinner a great night and a fitting end to our stay 

Leaving Albert Dock was great nice sun rise and a warm wind but by the time we reach the first Lock it was raining with a strengthening colder wind and that’s how it was until we moored up at 14.00 hrs being wet and cold. Except for the weather everything was with today we did the whole trip took five hours so that was cutting 90 mins off the inward trip easy once you have done it and got the lay of the land/water  in your head 

However not to put a dampener on what  has been a remarkable visit to Liverpool, we are now moored about 4 miles outside Magul the rain stopped about 18.00hrs and the wind died down an hour later, we have just witnessed a most spectacular sunset so all is well with the world We will be in Scarisbrick by lunch tomorrow where I have a job to do on a boat. The weather for the next 4 days looks quite grim  but we will start off again on Monday heading towards Manchester and all going to plan should be in by Thursday see you all soon

I am keepingb these short and sweet but maybe a bit more regular?????
