Hi everyone
Yesterday I thought was quite bad weather wise but we awoke this morning to another drop in the temperature and an increase in the wind speed that is every boaters nightmare unless you are under sail and we are not though in theory with a side that is 5ft high x 60ft long I make that to be 300 sqft of sail witch when it gets a hold of you there is very little anyone can do bet to keep the speed down and understand the water.
We started with a lazy breakfast and a slow start having negotiated two swing bridges without incident we called in at Scarisbrick marina to say helo have a bacon butty and a coffee and then set off again. It got 14.00 hrs I got fed up of fighting the wind and decided to call it a day. I just happen to know this nice pub that has good food and better ale so I just pulled in at the Ship. moored up had a lazy afternoon went out for dinner now having a lazy evening in front of the telly,
Tomorrow seem as if the weather is very much the same as today, So it will be an early start as we have to be at bridge 9 by 13.00 to start our link passage into Liverpool. again not a long way but we have seven swing bridges through Magul which can be difficult.
lets see if we can find another nice pub to moor at
