To Radford

It took two tries to get out of the marina in the wind this morning after filling with diesel, because the first time we just ended up square across the entrance having been caught by a gust.  Right turn, and we shared Stockton Locks under grey clouds, with occasional spots of rain, before lunch at the Two Boats.  Arriving at Bascote Locks, there was a short torrential shower, but by the time we were through the staircase it was sunny, and we could see the cloud that had just passed over us.
After that an uneventful run down to Radford on our own, turning all but one lock, with the two boats behind not quite catching us before we moored.
