Goodbye Banbury




After being idle for so many days we decided we better push on a bit.

As promised Tuesday was not a good weather day so we stayed put, taking it in turns to take Barney out and we did some shopping at Morrisons which was a longer walk than I had bargained for!


Today we decided on an early start so we might find the sani station free!  We were off at 7.30pm but the water point above the lock was free so we decided to use that.   Watering took a while as it had been nearly a week and whilst we were there at least 7 boats came past and went down the lock.  Everyone trying to catch up because of the grotty weather of the past 2 days.

Our turn now

Goodbye Banbury

A gentle trip as we were not in a rush,   However quite long by our standards this year.

Total distance:4.91 miles 
Elapsed time:3h58m33s 
Locks:3
Bridges:16 
Average speed:1.24 mph (1.99 lock/mph)
