At last! We have been able to take an outer layer off! Lighter winds and a little sunshine have bought smiles to our faces today. Just a short trip from Wallingford to Goring-on-Thames today. We stopped for lunch and decided to stay. Sid has managed to mend the puncture in his front tyre and also replace the shower drain pump, which we were delighted to pick up at Sheridan Marine, Moulsford. Whilst doing a bit of Saturday morning shopping in the chandlery we were filling up with water, which was getting rather low. The staff in the chandlery were most helpful and friendly despite the fact that we were narrowboaters rather than Freeman owners ( which is what they specialise in).
Jenny saw her first cygnets today along with lots of red kite, arctic terns, geese and ducks.
Off to Beale Park tomorrow where we hope to see lots more wildlife!

Pansies grown by Jenny and admired by many passers by!
Jenny can grow pansies!!!!!!
Its been lovely keeping up with your new adventure. You are now heading into an area that Steve and I have spent many a lovely weekend when we had our little inflatable boat. We often went to Goring etc. We love this area.
ReplyDeleteHopefully we can catch up with you now. I am away this coming weekend for a week and I suspect when I return you will be not far from where we met before.
So maybe Saturday week ( 1st June ) we can catch up with you in the afternoon somewhere ?
Hope Sids knee is ok
Take Care
