Day One

We had a good journey up the M5, clear all the way, arriving at Alvechurch at around 09:30hrs. TQ was available straight away so we got all our gear transferred. Then all we had to do was wait for Mr. Tesco to arrive, which he did at 11:30hrs. So it was transfer that to TQ then we were away. As I'm writing this I have realised there are a few things I've forgotten. Firstly a brass water connector for the water hose used to fill the fresh water tank. The one on TQ is plastic and is buggered, but we'll cope somehow. The next thing is the card reader for the camera, which means I can't upload any photos to this blog. The third thing is the Bluetooth dongle we bought at Christmas is missing, so I can't upload any photos from my phone either. I are a wazock! On Tuesday we should be in Worcester, so I'll see if I can get a card reader there. The fourth thing is a length of co-ax cable to connect our super duper TV aerial to the junction box on TQ. Oh! well, no telly. It gets tougher.

Anyway, had a good but exhausting trip down the Tardebigg flight, and we're moored for the night between Lock 29 and the Queens Head Inn.

I'll try to find a way to post some pictures soon.
