A short blog

Yes, I know, I'm always saying that, but this time I mean it.

I was going to do a catch up with stuff about yesterday, since Sally pinched the space then, but we've spent the latter part of the afternoon with John and Nev on Waimaru, socialising with a couple of bottles, and I need to get a shower before we all go out to the pub.

I'll do a proper catch up tomorrow, hopefully.

Today we went from Barrow to Syston, stopping at Sileby Mill to get a pump out (no, their holding tank was full) and diesel (yes, but pricey).

We've come on to the Hope and Anchor at Syston, and have moored in a very nice spot outside the Water Park

As I say, proper catch up tomorrow, after we've braved the wilds of Leicester.

[Pronunciation guide for the last few days:

Zouch = Zotch
Loughborough = Luff-burr-uh
Leicester = Lest-uh.]

Very impressed that you have managed this in lesh than half an hour, so I guesh you are feeling the effects of the pm. wine less than I. Should be a late start for us tomorrow after a meal and a further drink or three. Great to see you again.

John

PS Perhaps Gill was right after all.

It was indeed a merry meeting! It's more of an achievement that I've blogged today, after the exercise we've had.

Have a good cruise up North and see you at Burton, hopefully.

All the best

Bruce and Sheila.

PS I'll deal with Gill when I catch her, something to look forward to ;-}}}

(Note for the rest: this is the lady off Cala who, when observing John and Nev stocking Waimaru up with wine said "Oh, of course, you're meeting Bruce and Sheila, aren't you.")
