We picked our guests up around lunch time on Monday, this was only to be an overnight stay so we thought we would try to show them as much as we could.
A trip to Hillmorton through the locks and back again seemed a good plan.
The sun went down very early on us as the cloud cover was very thick, so we had to moor up within two hours of Braunston. That left us a nice little chug for the morning.
The canal is as busy as a canal can get at the moment, everyone we meet is saying they have never seen it this busy before. That is a line of five boats behind us.
This is the chaos we arrived back to. We had to jump into a line of boats just to get going this morning, normally we would wait until it is clear but after eight boats and more on the way we joined the convoy.
These are our friends Barbara & Wolfgang, who, after their quick jaunt would like to come again for a lot longer,................ we'll see you then.
New guests taken aboard now and off we go again, more about that tomorrow as the connection is the best part of non existant this evening.
Until then.......................................

I am so looking forward to weekend jaunts with different friends for company.
Maybe your friends will now buy a boat and join the 'good life' :)
