this labby appeared at the window when I was getting Finlay's dinner ready. Typical !!!!
We moored up for the wedding week-end, opposite a field of ewes and lambs, and each morning we were treated to the sight of about 3 to 13 lambs having races along the bank, with a few high-jumps thrown in for good measure. So funny. A lovely mooring with lovely weather.
Tuesday morning we left Hawkesbury junction on the Coventry Canal, but not before Mick took an early bath !!!!!
I was just rolling up the side of the cratch cover when I saw micks head passing by the other side.! OMG! On investigation, he was waist deep in the canal, he had missed his footing and very slowly slid in. Friend Jim helped him out, whilst trying to keep a straight face. Wish I had been quicker with the camera!. Macho Mick said that the water wasn’t that cold, anyway. And more importantly, he managed to keep his wallet dry !!!!!
We passed quickly through Nuneaton- YUK. ! Down the atherston flight- absolutely lovely and moored at the bottom of the flight with J&M+2. This would be our last night of Towpath Tipples with them, as we are going in a different direction tomorrow , and as it was Jim’s turn to “do” the drinks, we had 3 !!!!! It was extremely hot, so the washing was in the hedge-row, and I will try and get a photo on for Scooby. As he always seems to have a comment about our washing. !
On towards Birmingham, and hopefully a meet up with Sue Saunders’ cousin Debs.

Hi Jen & Mick, see the adventures still keep coming. Would like to have seen Mick trying to retrieve his wallet though, if it had happened to fall out of his pocket!!!!!Still seems to be open house on Trundle.Don't tipple over after your tipples. Melva
ReplyDeleteGot those 'Harvest Festivals' well hidden this time Jen, good work.......lol. Nuneaton is lovely, it just looks a bit rough at the edges. Never knew Mick even had a wallet!
