Well an early blog today. We set off first thing in glorious sunshine to get to Henley, before the hordes come out as its Sunday. I’m glad we did, because at the moment there is a boat passing every 45 seconds ! We shall stay here regardless of the mooring fees and tackle the locks to Windsor tomorrow. Yesterday was another sunny day the run into Reading was difficult with the amount of wind. This was compensated by travelling with Rob and Margaret aboard Venetia, a super little Piper boat. We had spent the previous evening having coffee and talking canals. If you thought we were doing a long trip they had come down from Chester and are aiming for Bath, with a return trip before Autumns end ! It was good to talk to like minded people and we hope to travel “Up North” with them one day.
