Moored up due to dodgy weather… Day 262

C.L. Peache

Tuesday 9th April Day 262

It’s 5am on Saturday 13th April in my world. It’s been a challenging and amazing time this week as we have been proper cranking it with some very challenging weather and situations we have found ourselves in ((Of your own making I might add!)) Yes, other than the weather but we did get a few things wrong! ((Shocking, experienced boaters like you!))

Back to Tuesday 9th April. Last night saw us mooring up at Curdworth and the promised dodgy weather arrived with various heavy showers and strong winds so I’m glad we decided to stop. Curdworth is a nice place, although the Curdworth tunnel roof was full of spiders when we came through so I’m glad we didn’t get eaten by shelob in the night.

It’s 5.15am in the real world again and just had to share that the dawn chorus has started. One lovely thing about being up early ((You’ve probably woken them up putting the light on. Poor birds will be shattered all day!)) is enjoying nature waking up. Spring is one of my favourite seasons.

I make the most of an inside day and get a few hours freelance work done and some vlogs sorted and uploaded and that’s day done. Until tomorrow. x
By the time you read this there should be a vlog of the next few days of dodgy weather and even dodgier cruising!
