Sunday lunch not behaving badly

We entered the Trent and Mersey on Saturday and made our way down to the first pub on the section  (funny old thing).  This is the Plume of Feathers at Barlaston.  Sunday morning was spent in the usual clean the boat routine and we were all ready for scoff by midday.  The pub is actually owned by Neil Morrisey of Men Behaving Badly fame.  Its hard not to know that as its written on the outside walls and many of the internal walls are covered in his photos.  However, that did not detract from the meal which was outstanding and not expensive.  It came very close to a 10 but failed only because the roast spuds were a little soggy.  We gave it 9.75 that's the best score we've ever given.
On to Stone tomorrow, its only a few miles and 8 locks but there is a chandlery there and I need an air filter for the engine and an anchor in anticipation of some rivers to come.
