Grotty connection at Fradley

It should be a really fast 3 connection  here at Fradley – the mast is at the A38 junction at Alrewas – and the modem is showing the green light for a full conn, but it's hiccupping away like fun, so just a brief blog.

We had a really good natter with Alan and Liz last night, catching up with all the goss about our former fellow Owners of Streamline.

An eight o'clock start saw us doing some very pleasant boating in bright sun; the run past the woods above Woodend is incredible in those conditions, with beams of sunlight shining down onto the water.

A quick run down to the junction, and I winded Sanity Again to pull up alongside the service boat, where we had a good pump out for just £12.

No problem finding a mooring below Junction Lock, and time to do some more varnishing before lunch, despite going for hot choc/decaf coffee and carrot cake in the cafe first.

We've had a quiet afternoon; Elanor is coming over with Sally later, on their way to agility class.
