Fish and Chips



The bow thruster failed today. After a little head scratching we decided to check the mega-fuse between the thruster and the battery. The 250A fuse had blown. Probably because of excessive use - the thruster is only supposed to be used for seconds at  a time.

Calcutt Boats chandlery rose to the occasion and I bought two new fuses, fitting one and kept the other as spare.

We stopped in Braunston for fish and chips from the Admiral Nelson for tea. Expensive for fish and chips (£8 each) but excellent and wrapped in newspaper for takeaway.

Total distance is 14 miles, 5¼ furlongs and 19 locks
