When we arrived here yesterday we spotted nb Isandlwana belonging to Mary and Neil Downes who we knew a couple of years ago when we moored at Hayford Fields marina near Bugbrooke. It was nice to have a catch up.
It was such a hot evening inside the boat that we sat out and I managed to get a shot of our solar lights on the roof, this was taken about 9.30 p.m .
Having passed Barry and Carol on nb Winton's Folly moored up yesterday, today we were tooted by our Austalian boaters Elly and Mick on nb Parisienne Star, who moored up behind us and we spent a couple of hours chatting about our travels. Elly immediately got stuck into my jigsaw puzzle. (Have finished it now Elly, alas 3 pieces missing). We hope they will moor at Aston with us again this winter before returning to Australia next year. After a couple of attempts to get the timer right, Elly took a photo of us all and is going to email it to us. Watch this space or theirs!
We plan to go to Braunston tomorrow and then on to Rugby for supplies. After that we think we go up the Leicester Arm and attempt the river Soar before returning to the midlands.
