Market Drayton.

Carpe Diem....................ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

We are staying put on these moorings ready for the market tomorrow. There is a lot of boat movement around here at the moment, the moorings seem to fill up overnight.

The morning is like the start of a race with everyone trying to be the first to get to the locks.

A few more pics from past days.



A typical Staffs & Worcs narrow blind bend with accompanying rocky overhang, just to keep you on your toes.

A lock cottage for sale. The helpful man at the lock warned us about buying this as the weir flowing under the house floods the foundations. Good job he was there as I was just getting the money out of my back pocket.

This hole in the cliff is named "Devils Den" and is listed as a boat house in the Nicholson. It might have been at one time but there is no water at the entrance now. The padlock is new though so it must still be used for something.

Ok, Market day looms then we will be off again.

Until then.........................
