Shroppie Fly & Audlem Locks

 After cleaning the cratch cover, which incidentally didn't come up to bad, and Ian touching up the paintwork again!!!! (all because of my mishaps with the locks on Heartbreak hill) we left the next day at some unearthly hour of the morning, 7 am to be precise, and made Audlem flight just after 8 am. After stopping at the Shroppie Fly to water up we found to our surprise that all 15 locks were in our favour and. including our facilities break. got to the top by about 11 am. We pushed on and did the 5 locks in the Adderly flight ( which again were set in our favour ) and then decided we had cruised enough, after all it was lunch time, and moored by what we thought was a quiet mooring.
