Well that's the bank holiday over and what a bank holiday great weather and a great place to be. as usual we find a marina or a secure mooring. Bank Holidays on the canal are just the same as the roads, Busy ! not because there are lots of weekend boaters (who can be a little rusty at navigation) no it is just that it can get busy and I suggest that boaters like us who enjoy doing hundreds of miles in a season get off the water and let those who don't get the time to enjoy as much as we do. Get out on a less congested waterway. When we lived in Germany they had a system there that did not allow HGVs on the road between midnight Saturday until midnight on Sunday leaving the autobahn free for family days out Maybe we should try it here over bank holidays.
So we spent a very restful weekend Kieth and I fished most of Sat and Sun and he went home yesterday hopefully having had a rest and a little recovery period he certainly caught enough fish.
I believe this time he won I could say in my defence that I was busy taking care of his every need?
Today Kath and John came over for a very civilised Lunch in the sunshine, There is something special about eating lunch on deck with the sun bouncing off the water, with the ducks, Geese and boats sailing by very tranquil.
Tomorrow its off to the Hospital to see what they intend to do about this "Big Red Spot" on my neck, best outcome would be for them to sharpen their knife, cut it out and lets get on with sailing worst would be hanging around for more tests. Who cares what will be will be. I always say "don't worry about things that you have no control over"
So with a little luck we will soon be on our way continuing on our journey
Just a few pics of what lies ahead
