Hottest Day of the Year at Newark

Newark Nether Lock to Newark Town, River Trent 1 mile 1 lock

Had a relaxing morning before moving down to Newark to get some supplies and some lovely meat and potato pies from Morrisons. Didn't take any photos today, so here is one from yesterday of Cromwell Lock, it is really well kept by the lock keeper and a huge lock.

Lucky enough to moor on the left before town bridge here in Newark, Morrisons is only just across the road from the visitor mooring, tis a long walk if you have to moor the other side of the river!

Phew it has been so hot today, made us extremely lazy. Off for a couple of pints on the floating bar moored just up from us. We will stay here the night, Chas has sent some photos of his travels, and will pick them up from the Post Office in the morning before moving down to Farndon Marina to check out this alternator. Has been working OK today, so maybe it was just a wire loose, hope so!
