Great Heywood. The man at the water point was cross because the man before him at the water point had locked the water point up thus requiring him to go get his CRT key to open up the water point again when the first man at the water point was sure to have known that the second man at the water point was going to use the water point so what was the point of locking the water point? Still with me? Anyway we were the Third Man at the water point and could get away with murder. What did happen in that film? I can't remember.
Beautiful, it is, between Rugeley and Stone; a feast for the eyeballs. Stopped shy of Stone just after Sandon lock. Went to explore odd whip cracking noises coming from further up the cut. Was a young girl, nine or so, sitting in a chair on the bank shooting an air pistol at God knows what. Dad on the boat looked like a survivalist freak. Probably training up his little darling to survive the coming Armageddon by shooting at sparrows. I stood and stared at her. She got up and handed the gun to her dad who put it away. We might survive the night or we might not. Never can tell with these survivalist freaks.
We will wave in the general direction of Terry Darlington aka Tits Magee as we pass through Stone tomorrow.
