The Stone Star

Nine week cruise - day 56 - Friday 26th August 2005

Etruria to Stone

John was up at 0710. Moved Shadow to the water point, watered up, and moved it to the marina at 0850. By about 1050 we were all back on board Lee Swallow ready for the journey back to Bletchley. We set off down the Stoke locks. At Trentham we moored for lunch, then, at Earls Road, Penny, Jemima, Florence, Fergus and Alison departed. Under way again at 1500ish.

Six miles further on, we moored for the night in Stone, by Stone Boatbuilders. Jan made spaghetti carbonara for us all. At about 2100 we went to the town centre and shopped in Somerfield. David and I went to the Star pub.
