The weather forecast was for heavy rain until lunchtime but fortunately it more or less stopped at 10:00 so we set off dressed in our wet weather gear which proved useful during the few light showers that followed. It was an uneventful journey back into Stoke on Trent to arrive in Etruria at 14:50 where we planned to spend the night. Traffic on the canal is very light, we only met 4 other boats during the 5 hour journey.
We were short of groceries so had to walk the 3/4 mile to Hanley Tesco to stock up for our last 3 days of this journey.
8.22 miles, 9 locks 3 lift bridges, 5 hours cruising
