In Newbold now, after Hilmorton and Braunston


This is Elizabeth at the tiller, chatting with Andrew.  He and Sarah visited us at Blue Haven on Saturday, then travelled with us to Braunston and stayed at our new find, The Old Workshop B&B.  We were all a bit miffed not to have the promised snow, but we did enjoy the clear winter sun! After a lovely visit, we all travelled back to Blue Haven on Sunday, where Andrew and Sarah collected their car for a reportedly wonderful drive back to Gosport.  

We travelled on through Hilmorton locks, having felt quite lock starved, and moored up in Hilmorton visitor moorings for Sunday night.  The only serious precipitation of the day was when we worked locks!  Today we made our way to Newbold and Elizabeth is in London for the night for more URC training work, while Pete is flickering from the desk in Bella.  And Josie managed to demolish the entire batch of chocolate fondu biscuits while on her own in the afternoon...
