Rain for much of the morning. We discovered this morning that one of the three boats moored with us had its ropes cut last night. Our other neighbour was woken by his dog and saw a group of six hoodies laughing on the nearby swing bridge. I too heard a thump on the boat at the same time co-incidentally with the wind generator suddenly stopping its hum, but that started up again and an inspection from inside at that time showed nothing wrong, so I was half expecting to see a dead bird on the roof this morning. However we had no signs of anything wrong in the light of day. Because of the rain, and not being in any hurry we set of much later than normal and very slowly. Our first swing bridge was under maintenance after some faults but the engineers got it open easily enough for us. Then the next was a stop for a visit to Morrisons nearby. Pat has had an idea for a recipe spurred on by our excellent meal at Gusto on Tuesday night. Then she saw an advert for a hair salon which backed on the the canal and got an immediate appointment. Very lucky. More swing bridges followed and our final stop for the day near the Ship Inn, Haskayne. Visit planned for later after Sausage Surprise for supper.
