We have stayed put for weekend catching up with domestic chores and going out dog walking weather permitting. I was 'busy' reading at stern, with pint on hand, when I got into conversation with some towpath walkers, Jill and Jon, about boats and cost of boating. We ended up showing them round ours (lucky we had been tidying up in the morning)! They live in Spain but were keen on the idea of having a boat to visit England in the summers (summer?). My advice was to hire first to be sure they really enjoyed it before investing.
They gave me this link to their web site for their son

Waiting now, with rain pouring down, for my cousin to visit us today with his son who has recently had surgery for a brain tumour. I understand he is now on the mend but struggling to keep occupied in his convalesence. Just hoping rain will ease so we go into the park this afternoon and may be visit the local 'Swan with Two Nicks' where we have met up with family before.
Hi both!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about being repetitive re: wind - we all know how good Bridie's cooking is! ;o) The weather has been dreadful here too - I wished I'd taken my gloves when I walked the dogs yesterday morning! It has come out nice this afternoon though.
I've finished my NVW (Hurrah!) at last so I'm spending this week decorating. Our new front windows and door are in & Jane is coming to do the bathroom floor 2moro...
Keep up the blog, it's great to see the pics too :o) Carol xx
