We have been rather pre occupied at home so have not been able to go up to the boat as much as we would like. The previous time being early October when the weather was glorious and we managed a short cruise into Braunston with a lovely overnight stay near bridge 103.

The satelite dish on the roof decided to take flight during the evening but luckily I had tied it down and therefore it didn't go AWOL.
