Glorious sunshine greeted us as we arose this morning. After breakfast it was time to set off the couple of miles to Macclesfield to drop Ben And Claire at the railway station for their return jorney to Surrey. Mooring up near bridge 37 we all walked into town for some shopping and to find the railway station. Both missions accomplished we returned to Shell Bell for lunch. At 13:30 it was back to the station to say farewell to our guests, back on board we departed to make our way to Bollington and suprise an old friend Sue.

We moored at Adelphi Mill and walked along the canal until we reached Clarence Mill. We phoned Sue who was very suprised we were outside, after the shock she invited us in andwe went and had a cup of tea with her. Then we arranged to meet her later and go to The Vale Inn for a drink,the Vale is ru by the Bollington Brewery and it is excellent both for beer and food i tried the lager (Moravka) lovely.
