Oundle

To Oundle for a boat test today, so I was up fairly early and making the 25 minute walk along the towpath back to the marina and my car.  The boat test included a trip up (and then down) Upper Barnwell Lock, which has Oundle Mill alongside.  These days it’s an upmarket kitchen and bathroom design centre.


Although there was some sunshine when we arrived, it quickly clouded over.  It was still dull when I got back to the boat at about 2.30.  I was in two minds about whether to get a second coat of paint on the handrails, but I decided I’d go for it.  Dull, warm, and dry conditions are actually quite good for painting.
