2 NEW CREW Plus good cruising companions

Half term and two of my grandchildren Keirnan and Jack have joined me for the week. The first few hours went fine but Keirnan being the youngest decided after being put to bed that he missed mum, cuddles and bribery had no effect and so Kiernan jumped ship when mum arrived.

Do you all agree with Jack, it weighs at least 10lb


Now young Jack has been aboard a few times over the years so he was just fine doing locks, tying up the boat, fishing and washing the boat again and again and again........when he wasn`t eating that is.

Moored up near Slapton village Jack and i went for a walk across the fields in amongst the grazing cows and walking back along the towpath came across George and Carol on Rock `n` Roll moored about a mile ahead of us. This morning we travelled down to Marsworth sharing the locks and jack was in his element walking the towpath either with George or Molly the dog.

Upon reaching Marsworth George and Carol kindly invited us to their BBQ..................many thanks to you both.
