Canal view near Adlington
Today we have travelled further up the Leeds & Liverpool canal mooring at a village called Wheelton where we hope to visit the local launderette for our first clothes wash of the trip and to celebrate afterwards with a visit to the nearby pub.
During this trip we passed a sign saying "Welcome to Lancashire". I guess we were in Greater Manchester previously. The journey itself was enjoyable passing through attractive scenery and finishing off with a flight of 7 locks.
Back to launderettes - as we plan to be away for 2-3 months we dont have sufficient clothes and bedding to last. We therefore need to wash our clothes, and as we dont have a washing machine on board we are dependent on laundrettes. Furtunately we dont need to spend time looking for one as the Aylesbury Canal Society publish a list of all launderettes close to canals.
