farmers' preferred choice of holiday ???










































Virgin stuck on bridge. Just as we went beneath, it moved off. Poor Finlay.










Some days since I blogged, so Thursday night we had a nice mooring after we had shopped at Rugby. However, that night we seemed to have a lot of nightlife………………………….on top of Trundle, even some tapping on the door in the early hours, and even though it made me jump, I knew it would be a bird, and yes it was, left its calling card all over our back deck. Tch tch !!!!

This is what freaks Finlay out. Trains. See pic. A virgin stuck on a bridge( there must be a joke there somewhere ).

Friday we had a lovely rural mooring north of Braunston, nice enough for some washing to be put out to dry…..Scooby Alert. !

Reading the Towpath Talk( free paper for boaters). The NB we had a holiday on, and had wanted to buy-Driftweed is up for sale at Cowroast Marina. We ended up with Ragweed, now Trundle, and would not swap her for anything.

Now we are on the really lovely Oxford Canal, and going as far as we can befor we have to turn around. We might just make it to Isis Lock, then return. Who knows. IF, IF the weather becomes really warm, we will haul up for a few days perhaps.

Loads of help at Napton Locks. This is Daniel, Sean, Paul and Catherine. Thanks a lot.

The moorings along here are wonderful.Rural with sheep and cows etc. and some idiots want to put another High Speed Train through it all./ ! Just what is not wanted. Can’t folk get to places quick enough as it is???? Anyway there is a petition to sign if anyone cares to. HSP2. co uk. Or something like that.


We also saw a boatname that always makes us smile. called Pooh Sticks. !!!!
