Still In Braunston

We are still in Braunston and on Sunday we enjoyed a very nice sunday roast at the Boathouse, very nice to have a good selection of veg on the plate and an enormous homemade yorkshire and not the rubbish frozen ones some pubs sell.

Sunday afternoon we had a visit from Chris & Peter who we last saw when last in Braunston. We enjoyed catching up with them again.

On Tuesday we had Simon come and service Tacet and do a couple of other jobs.
Wednesday we woke to a very slight frost and as the weather forecast was for a sunny day we went for a cruise up to Barby Marina and winded to return to Braunston. On the way I managed to snap this swan landing just in front of us as we cruised along.

We have arranged for Mark of Star Cross Carrying a trade boat supplying Fuel,coal ect to fill our diesel tank. Late afternoon Mark pulls up beside us and duly fills the diesel tank.
