There was a lot of rain in the night, hammering on the roof. Adrian was up early this morning, as he was catching a train from Chirk station first to Chester, and then on to Manchester for a conference. As I did not need to be out the door by 6.15 I stayed in bed! The rain carried on for much of the morning, so I did a bit of baking. Then it cleared and the sun came out, so I went for a walk down to the aqueduct.
I then walked through the tunnel rather than over it as there’s a towpath through, and up the canal the other side a bit. Then I walked into Chirk, had lunch, and came back over the aqueduct again. I still needed steps, so went up the canal the other way, past the Poacher’s Pocket pub. It got so warm I ended up having to take off not just my jacket but my jumper as well.
The internet signal remains dire — it occasionally makes an appearance and a load of messages come through, and then completely disappears again. It’s a shame because Chirk is really nice.
