After the long winter and the Beast from the East we are out again in warm sunny weather. Unfortunately this is not as planned and so we have brought too many sweaters and not enough light tee shirts and short trousers. Never mind it is very pleasant cruisng.
Last October Densie was repainted and new double-glazed windows were installed. It feels like a new boat. We set off from Aston Marina at 9:10 and turing north to travel through Stone towards Stoke on Trent. After 4 hours we stopped at the village of Barlaston after a trip of 5.6 miles and 9 locks.
A couple of pictures:

I have been meaning to post a picture of this bridge at Meaford Top Lock just north of Stone for a while. The bridge is little wider than a car so the carefuly painted dotted line down the centre of the road looks very odd. A shame that new tarmac has obscured some of it
