Willeymoor Lock Tavern

Ha! A signal at last. Now, if the laptop's batteries will hold out for a bit, I'll post a picture or two.

OK, two.


Yesterday we left the Shady Oak at 0800 and didn't really stop until the Willeymoor Lock Tavern on the Llangollen Canal at 1855. To show that Shadow really is back on the cut, here is Jan steering it.

I'd never been in the Willeymoor Lock Tavern before. We had a good meal there, with the best chips we'd had all holiday. (The worst were at the Waterloo Arms in Abermule. When the Monty is fully restored go to the Abermule Hotel instead.) Those who have been to the WMT will know that it's chock-a-block with teapots. The gaudier the better, it seems.

Brian, yes, it was worth the wait. Engine is running very sweetly, as god as it has ever done!

VallyP, yes, it certainly is.
