Tibberton

Another glorious day forecast.  Blue sky & no clouds to start with at least.  Quiet in the basin.  Turned around  and then stopped for lunch at 1.00pm having completed 8 locks.  Just before A449.  6 locks under M5 then due to finish at Tibberton for supper.  Not seen another boat yet, they are missing all this sunshine! All 14 locks passed uneventfully.  Several walkers, bikers, joggers about especially this afternoon.  Really sunny & warm - 20 C.  Warmer than when we were in St Ives in May last year!  Arrived in Tibberton at 3.00pm & made a quick dash for the Post Office for provisions but alas it closed at 12.30 (on Saturdays) and doesn't reopen until Monday.  Quick cuppa at canalside pub "The Bridge" & persuaded them to sell us some milk - cheers for that!  Sadly we've also run out of bread & cheese so will have to make do.  Pub is a bit "& chips" so have decided to make our own tonight then go back to "The Fir Tree" tomorrow.  Waitrose @ Droitwich has proved very very fortuitous - especially this weekends offers of meal for 2 for £10.00.
