Danny and myself walked into town. Middlewich DIY were serving across a barrier outside at the back of the building so it wasn’t ideal for getting what we wanted, although we did get most. Similarly, the angling centre were also serving at the front door, there was a huge queue but we did eventually get some maggots.
Back at the boat we fished and lazed the afternoon away in the sunshine and heat.
Jemima got a lift from a friend back to Aqueduct Marina to collect their car and Danny then met her at the chippy and brought back fish and chips for us all. The sky grew darker and darker with massive storms forming and the heavens opened up, so I walked to meet them with umbrellas.
The fish and chips were an absolute delight. Sometimes you don’t know how much you miss something until you can’t get it.
The storm became much worse, really dramatic. At one point we lost sight of Gaia just feet behind us, the towpath was full of ice and we had hailstones bouncing through the vents into the boat. It was all very impressive.
