Monday 22nd August
5.5 miles, 4 locks
Dry again today but cloudy. Took advantage of having the car to do a big Sainsbury's shop in the biggest Sainsburys we've ever seen.
Got a text from Jo to say that Jonathan had died on Saturday morning.

After taking the car back we were pleased to be leaving the marina and getting back on the cut. Very pleasant cruise to Mount Sorrel - managed to moor outside the Waterfront pub.

The Buttercross Market with Castle Hill behind |
Had a wander into the village. There is an old Buttercross Market and a war memorial on top of the mount. It seemed rude not to call into the pub where Paul enjoyed a pint or two of Old Original.
