Leeds and Liverpool Canal:Parbold

Even shorter day today.  Just four swing bridges and a dawdle.  The usual problem however approaching a mooring hotspot.  How far down the line of boats do you go before finding out that you have landed in a permanent mooring zone and there are no more spaces?  So we pulled up right at the end of the line and Pat walked down to find out.   Yes there were spaces nearer the bridge and these are not permanent moorings, well at least no sign.  Good enough so we continued down.  Then when I had finally bashed a mooring pin into what seemed like concrete the notice saying that this was only 24 mooring.  However, it looks like this applies only to the bit of tidy wharf near the bridge and not to the sloping edged bank further back.   So that's where we are.   There are no signs saying where the 24 hour mooring extends to.
