Handsacre to Kings Bromley Marina

We made the very short journey from Handsacre to the marina, this will probably be our last voyage of 2013 :-((.

Kings Bromley will be our base for the next couple of months, over the Christmas period and into February though we will hopefully be able to get out in January.

Yesterday we walked George by the Trent and around the grounds at Shugborough Hall.

Above is the Windy Tower and below the main house - or should I say mansion.

We were going to stop at the Cafe at the hall but fortunately it was closed, I say fortunately as we found a great little Cafe next to the lock on the Trent & Mersey which most unusually had a conservatory that dogs were allowed in, so for once we didn't have to sit outside and drink our coffee!!

We got back and soon had the stove up and running on coal instead of logs for a change.

We are off to get Mr B's Christmas pressie today and I am very pleased to announce that Movember is finally over - yippee!!!!
