Piglet: Braunston to Newbold - 21st May 2013

Sometime in the past year our friend Joanna asked us if we'd like to go and see the band Muse who were playing at the Emirates Stadium in Coventry.  I'd previously seen Muse live in 2010 so was very happy to take up the offer.

Another bonus was that the Oxford Canal and the Coventry Canal run very close to the stadium so what better accommodation could we have than to take Piglet up to Coventry for a few days.

We set off from Braunston just before 9:30 am and reached our normal stopping off point at Newbold shortly before 2 pm.

We went to the excellent little Co-op to stock up with a few bits and pieces before having a spot of lunch and then a few pints in the Boat which seems to have a new landlord every time we visit!
