What a pleasant start we had today we left Suffolk around 10:30am although windy it was bright and warm, we had a good run up the traffic was light but by the time we got to Mercia Marina around three hours later it was raining. We soon emptied the car and had everything onboard, with the weather improving we decided to set off this evening so at 17:30 we backed Shell Bell off her pontoon mooring and made our way out off the marina the wind was a bit of a pain but at least the sun was shinning. We decided that we would moor at Shobnall and it was around a two hour trip, arriving just in time to watch the European football final.
