The wind did create some problems but we soon got to Hillmorton locks. A lot of boats were having trouble here and we had a problem getting out of one of the locks as we were jammed in by a guy unable to stop his boat drifting into Derwent6. Still no harm done and we moved on till we found a mooring in the middle of nowhere. The rest of the day we played music and Al and Tanya played a few games while the heavens opened. We had dinner out in the cratch under candle light before settling down to watch a DVD late in the evening. Al did fall asleep halfway through though, sabotaged by Del and Tanya. Bless!

Cruising in the wind
We all woke up to light rain but were really itching to go. After getting a paper and having breakfast, we could see a dry window in which to set off.
