Tibberton to Dunhampstead(Worcester & Birmingham Canal)



Passing Oddingly Church
We are on the move today and the sun was shining as we set off.  We are only going a couple of miles to Dunhampstead.  The main Bristol to Birmingham railway line runs right by the canal in places.  We passed Oddingly which has a lovely little church by the canal and chugged on.  The canal was very quiet this morning.

My Rhubarb Gin
Soon we were mooring up in the visitor moorings at Dunhampstead.  We had the pick of the spaces as we were the only boat there.

Fir Tree Inn
We chilled out for a bit, then walked up the road to the pub The Firtree Inn.  It is a really nice pub and we had a lovely lunch.  They also have a gin menu with about 12 gins so plenty to choose from.  I had Tiger gin and then Warner Edwards Victoria  Rhubarb Gin and very nice they were too.




We then walked back to the boat in glorious sunshine and in time to watch the qualifying for the GP and will just chill out for the rest of the day.
