In Banbury again

 

Moored in Castle Quay in Banbury

Another sunny morning though with quite a cool breeze.  We set off towards Banbury at 9:05 passing through Grant's Lock and then Banbury Lock where we stopped at the water point to fill up our water tank and also to dump all our rubbish at the nearby canalside facilities. That done we passed below the lift bridge, the last one of our current trip, into the the Banbury Castle Quay area where we were lucky to find a mooring.

We shopped for groceries at the nearby Lidl, of which we were previously unaware until it was recommended by another boater.  After lunch on board we walked into the the town centre.

We will be staying in Banbury for 2 nights and so won't publish the next blog until Saturday.
