Back to the marina

This week has seen us retrace our steps and tomorrow (Sunday) we will be back in the marina. Its been a fairly easy and uneventful week spending a couple of nights at the bottom of Napton Locks and having a great meal at the Folly. No sign of a recession here as we went to eat there the first night but they were totally full so booked for the following evening and it was heaving again. Not surprising really, great food very well priced and all the young female bar staff in short cut off jeans!

So 5 weeks out and almost wall to wall sunshine. We have had a few showers this week and did actually have to don the anoraks for an hour or two but compared to last year it was the other end of the spectrum. If anything I suppose one could complain that it was too hot but then we're never happy with the weather are we?

So back to Bungay tomorrow and then assuming Sarahs check up goes well we will come back to the boat in 7 - 10 days and set off again. This time we plan to go up through Leicester then over to Llangollen and back via the Severn and the Avon if time permits.
