'Don't beat me master'. Lister in full 'Dobby' (Harry Potter) mode today! Wound still evident but healed up nicely.
We contacted the owners of the ridgeback and they immediatey settled the bill, so we can put the whole business behind us now.
Early opening up on the Sunday and the crowds are starting to arrive at Linslade
Last weekend, we enjoyed a wonderful weekend at the Linslade Festival. Thank you to everyone who came to see us in our Gift Shop and hope to see you again when we come back next year!
An evening meal at The Globe at Linslade - disappointing quality from the previous year, I'm afraid
We had met up with friends again, Bob and Sandra (All Things Spanish) who sell Spanish related products, icecream and tea and coffee, and also Geraldine and Michael (Cheese Boat) who sell surprisingly cheese! So to visit the local pub for a quick evening meal had to be in order!
Another pub The Grove looking beautiful with all it's hanging baskets, at Linslade
We also met up with our friends Rod and Tracy on their boats Biddie and Olive and had to go for a meal with them, as well, later in the week. Well it would have been rude not to!
A bit blurry but Rod and Tracy were great company for the evening at The Ship in Linslade
Lovely leafy Linslade
Returning back towards Stoke Bruerne for this weekend, we passed back through the locks and through Milton Keynes, uneventfully.
Herons get everywhere and stand motionless so that you can't see them....
This shed is still standing - the lean a little more pronounced this year!
Rod and Tracy had already arrived at Stoke Bruerne and helped us up through the locks the following morning. Thanks guys!!
3 pairs of boats all in a row - Raymond and Nutfield, Biddie and Olive and us right at the back!
Modelling my newest creation!
We moored up behind Tracy and Rod and spent the evening talking, Richard and Rod on guitars, Tracy and me on the wine! I had finished sewing up my new jumper, started ages ago, so I was really chuffed, especially because it fits!
Richard and Lister this morning in Stoke Bruerne
Next weekend we will be setting up for the huge The Blisworth Canal Festival,which involves the whole village. It should be great, so please come along if you can and join in the fun!
