Saturday 10th November

Early start, but still with a cuppa in bed! We are on holiday after all!

We finished tidying and packing and chatted to an owner from NB Kallista. They have got an inverter with a fan that doesn't stop going even if it is off. So they were having to turn the power off to it at night time, bit boring.

We pulled along side NB Alcedonia to be nearer for a pump out when Ken and James turned up. It still bemuses us how they always pump out first the boats that the owners have already gone home from, leaving us waiting to find out what the damage is with the diesel and to say what split we'd like.

Today was an open day, WD was going to be on show to prospective new owners, so we'd booked a valet to make sure Dougie had the best chance of selling his share. Here's hoping she looked as good as she could do and more people were interested and wanted to buy our share! Each time we leave Elton Moss now could be our last time out on WD. We are buying our own boat which will be on the water in about a years time. It will be strange heading through Elton Moss in years to come and being on such familiar waters around Middlewich.

Peppers for breakfast and then the journey home. Even if we haven't sold our share by March next year we'll have had our last Peppers breakfast as WD is moving south. Oh well, they didn't do mushrooms or fresh tomatoes with their full cooked breakfast!

0 miles, 0 locks, 154 miles by car, 1 valet, 2 breakfasts, 1 packet fisherman's friends, 2 growing moustaches, 1 very meowing cat!
