Sunday morning was chilly to start with but soon warmed up as the sun came out. We travelled 3 miles and went through the first 8 of the Stockton locks with a nice couple on a hire boat. She was also scared of heights and it was quite challenging having two scaredy cats working the locks. Jo passed on tips for managing double locks on your own and tucking the windless down your top as a makeshift holster. Robin and her husband managed the boats and talked about rugby.
We moored at the Blue Lias pub which we remember from our way down as having good food as well as a good mooring and we'll stay here tonight and have dinner. Robin can also enjoy a pint while watching (yet more) rugby this afternoon. Onwards tomorrow, to Leamington Spa Tesco's!
