19:54 03/07/2008 8.3 miles 3 locks (Hillmorton)
Easy passage through the locks, thanks to boats coming the other way, then the long straight through Barby and on towards Braunston. Hit by a tremendous heavy rain storm, with as usual nowhere to moor, so plugged on. Eventually it stopped and we were in Braunston looking for mooring by 1.30. We were going for water but of course we are now in the region on Anglian Water affected by the 'bug' so decided not to take any on board as we have enough and as the notices on the taps say ' there are no current recommendations for flushing and cleaning boats tank to remove the contaminated water' I wonder what is happening back home in Long Buckby? We will soon find out as we will probably be home by Sunday.
