Day 76 .... 27.07.13 ...... Little Itchington


Great name of the village..... last night a beautiful sunset ...... sorry about the fact that the captions and pictures on today are erratic .... am not sure how to correct it and I do not want to get to out of date.



.............. and then on to the turn for the Grand Union again which will take us up to Birmingham.  This is the early 19th C version of the M1.



there are some quirky boats about and this chap is steam powered





on the way up we spotted a coal and diesel selling boat. It turned out to be the very one which refills our diesel and coal every month.  This time we only bought some Bloo   loo though!!




I am sorry that this is becoming a bit like a jigsaw.... I do not not know where the captions are going.  Please put the caption you think fits with the picture.



   
this is the end of a flight of locks into the village of Little Itchington which, after a gentle walk over some fields proved to be an extremely picturesque place.............





this was a house where Elizabeth 1st stayed and is for sale with 2.5 acres.  Have put in a bid but no news yet !!! Looks as if it would suit the handyman !!!

Last pic for today is just a great place

Sorry cannot find it .... if i do I shall put it on tomorrow's blog
