October Update
We’ve booked our passage through Harecastle Tunnel for the end of the month — it’ll be interesting to see just how spooky it feels at this time of year!
We’ve been enjoying some more lovely walks through the beautiful Staffordshire countryside, taking in the changing colours of autumn along the towpath. Before we left, we paid another visit to our favourite Italian restaurant in Stone — it really is excellent and will be missed!
Not every stop has been a highlight though — we tried the Plume of Feathers again, but sadly since it’s changed hands, the service has really gone downhill. We won’t be bothering again.
On a much brighter note, we had a fantastic evening at the Shroppie Fly in Audlem, where we enjoyed a great Elvis act and caught up with our friends Marianne, Phil, Paul, Antony, Emma also Sarah who we hadn’t seen for six months— it was a brilliant night full of laughs and good music
At the end of this week, Never Two Late will be heading into the marina for a short stay while we spend a week on dry land. Then our next adventure begins as we head onto the Macclesfield Canal.
We’ve got to make it to Bosley Locks by the 1st of November when they reopen for ten days, so it’ll be all go once we’re back aboard!
Meanwhile, Steve’s been busy making some new keyrings — lovely little elephants that have turned out really well. These are available to be ordered and posted out.
Maxine’s been creating leaf pots, some wool felted keyrings and is deep into writing both a Healthy Living Journal and a novel, keeping the creativity flowing even when moored up.
I will drop in a newsletter next weekend about our cruise to the marina.
Until next time,
Maxine, Steve & Mexi
