We did a quick trip down to Weybridge yesterday, for a successful visit to the bank, and a few stock items for Prime Thyme. It was quiet going down, but a few boats were making their way upstream by the time we turned around. Hazel’s “favourite” last lock, New Haw, was a bit anti climatic because somebody waited for us and shared the lock duties !

As ever I am blessed with my crew ❤️😀, many thanks to H for all the locks, galley duties and frequent washing of tops in the hot weather. It was a bit frantic on the Thames sometimes, the alternator breakdown didn’t help, but we coped with it all and had a great 3 weeks cruising.

We are packing today, doing a final boat clean and swapping the cratch covers over ready for the change of seasons. However the holiday has one more highlight when we stop over in Perth for Dads birthday, how good is that for planning ? Next years cruise hopefully sees us finally doing the Thames Ring in company with Lazy Otter, and a big ship cruise of Ireland if all things work out. Till next time, Cheers Tasotter
