(28) Barton Marina - Willington (10th Aug)

Cast off at 10:00 arrived at 15:00

Mls - 9.4
Total Mls - 294.1
Locks - 3
Total Locks - 153
Bridges - 0
Total Bridges - 15
 
We reversed out of the marina at 10:00 and chugged down to the first lock, which was only 1/2 mile away and got in the queue (3 boats) and then proceeded down to Branston and Burton on Trent. Discovered that the toilet pump was not working again...looks like a job for when we stop. Decided to try and get some new valves for the pump from the chandlers in Burton, but no chance....anyway I stripped it and made it good so fingers crossed tomorrow. Anyway we have had dinner and settled down to watch a video...no tele as we are behind the trees.
