We have returned to Hunters Moon after an eventful break during August. It has been fun having our eldest grandaughter, Emily, to stay during the school holidays and we have caught up with family and friends. However, one thing we didn't bank on was for Sid to have a spell in hospital with cellulitis again.
Since his leg is still not completely back to normal we decided to have a very slow and gentle chug down towards Oxford instead of heading up to Birmingham as we had planned.
Gusty, challenging winds were with us for the first few days of our trip but then the sun has come through and given us a glorious autumn day.
We were able to catch up with our good friends Jan and Tony whilst we were at Cropredy, they only live and short distance from this lovely little canalside village now and we are due to meet our fellow boaters Sara and Pete in Oxford .
We haven't made up our minds about where we will venture once we get to Oxford, whether to have a few days on the Thames, then whether to turn right towards Lechlade or downriver somewhere or just turn round and head slowly back up the Oxford Canal.
It's hard making these important decisions!
Thank you!
