It's been RAINING a LOT



OK, so we need rain. Do we need it every day in August when we are supposed to be having summer? We think not. We feel so sorry for those who have spent a small fortune on a narrowboat holiday to find they are just drenched each day. At least we can keep going in the sun - some day.

Each night of travelling, our clothes airer has two sets of foulies hanging out to dry... At least Elizabeth has wellies with strawberry print all over them... Here is Pete, in between rain drops, hat off even thought it could be wet any moment, because of the wind. We were on our way from Braunston to Napton, then to Fenny Compton, where we have stopped a day to blog and to defrost the freezer. The beautiful scene of the Warwickshire countryside belies the reality of the wind and that this is merely a gap in the storms.
