After spending a really lovely week in Cropredy Marina with our friends Kevin & Shirley and having lots of fun with them playing games enjoying some lovely meals and drinking too much it was time to say our goodbyes.

| Shirley, Kevin,Sharon & Me |
A big thank you to you both for taking us shopping and just being great friends. So on Saturday the 23rd we slipped our lines and left the Marina.
Kevin & Shirley met us at the bottom of the Claydon 5 locks and locked wheeled us through the locks in double quick time, 30 minutes from bottom lock to the top lock. So again we said our goodbyes at the top lock with the knowledge that we will be seeing Kevin & Shirley again soon.

The weather was good with the sun making an occasional appearance and had a very enjoyable cruise up to Fenny Compton where we are staying for a few days.
