Short cruise to Hilmorton trip

The weather was dry but foggy when we got up in the morning after a very cold night.  Before we could set off there were a number of jobs to be done.  The water tank was filled up  having been kept low during the winter whilst there was chance of a long cold spell. Then the boat had to be disconnected from the shore mains supply and switched over to batteries.  The fire had gone out overnight so it had to be relit.

But by 10:40 the fog was disapearing and we were ready to move. An uneventful journey took us a short distance before Hilmorton Locks arriving soon after mid-day.  AFder lunch onboard we walked to the locks but decided not to cruise any further today since we have plenty of time.
