Date - 6 July
Day - Thursday
Start - Brinklow
End - Braunston

We woke at about 6 30 to heavy rain and I got up to close the side
doors.Later it turned to a thunder storm. We set off about 10 still in
heavy rain. The tunnel light at Newbold were not on as we passed through
and the rain didn't stop until we reached Hillmorton where we stopped
for lunch. After lunch we made our way up the flight, the first lock was
with us but the second pair were both against us so we waited for a boat
that had just entered the top lock.
There was no sign of life on Bletchely and Argus so I was unable to top
up with diesel from them. We passed the butty Draco that had a sign in
the hold saying coal business for sale. We carried on to Braunston where
we have moored for the night opposite the Mill House pub in glorious
sunshine.
