Over the last few days we have visited relatives for some birthday celebrations, moored at bridge 31. Later above Bascote Locks, moored at Long Itchington.
Firstly a massive thank you to our family for looking after us during our time at Southam and for doing the laundry! - we had a lovely time.
Andrea and Martin have met up with us for a few days and helped us ascend Bascote Locks.

The final two locks on the flight are staircase locks where there is no pound between them and the water from the top one is used to fill the lower lock. We were up there in no time and have now moored in Long Itchington. There is a very useful Co-op here and plenty of pubs.

| War memorial - Long Itchington |
We thought this war memorial was a wonderful tribute to the soldiers who lived in this area and sadly lost their lives serving their country. The village held fundraising events to pay for the memorial which was unveiled in October 2018.
We thoroughly enjoyed a BBQ hosted by Martin and Andrea who were staying at a nearby campsite - THANK YOU! Nugget and Poppy enjoyed their sausage too !!!
