Adderbury with Clarissa and the Saddlebacks

We left the wooded lands near Tackley yesterday morning and moored up in the lovely named Nell's Acre. A new quayside has been built for short term moorings and includes electrics and the near proximity of Sarah and Dean's smallholding on which they are growing veg, raising rescued chickens and breeding rare Oxfordshire pigs. Clarissa is our closest companion and is a russet coloured beautiful beast, only two weeks away from her mating. The saddlebacks are three gorgous young ones, happy enough to make the most delicious roasts... A bouncy Jack Russell terrier has Josie on edge and the tiniest whippet puppy has leaned to swim. Pics will follow!
