Congleton to meet Boe

Approaching the basin at Congleton

A gentle trip with no rain today!!

We reached Congleton in plenty of time for Boe's expected arrival of 1.30-2pm and just managed to find a space in the basin.  Geoff went on his usual recce to see the best place for a pick up which proved to be the car park of the Wharf Inn.

Their arrival was a bit later than planned due partly to being stuck behind a tractor but also stopping to buy ice creams!

However Boe together with her friends Rosie and Colette arrived in time for tea.
