Some call it a long weekend
Hi Everyone We have had Quite a busy weekend, Sat was spent doing a few boating jobs and getting ready for the kids coming tomorrow Life jackets out everything that can fall in the river stowed away I take all precautions when Pippa, Zac, and Evie arrive but how else would you have it. I love inquisitive children and what better place to explore than a boat. This boat has hundreds of nooks and Crannies Sat afternoon after baking for the impending children (and the lock keepers) Noreen spent marvelling at two Kingfishers on the opposite bank who must have had fledglings in the nest as they were darting from the reed bed to their nest about 50 yards apart all you would see is a blue flash sometimes yellow depending on its angle of flight it was quite mesmerising. I spent it fishing or as Noreens dad use to call it " Drowning maggots" and that sums up my attempt at fishing this afternoon. Its worth sayin...
