Two boat tests

I was up fairly early this morning, and put a third coat of Danish oil on the window cills and corner pieces.  Then I took a walk along to the aqueduct and back.  It was a lovely sunny morning.  I’d moved the car to the village yesterday, and a 8.30 I set off to meet Andy the photographer at Bicester.  Using one car, we made for our first appointment at Hawne Basin, somewhere I’ve been to by boat, but never by car.


The weather was sunny enough and pretty warm, and we were done by lunchtime.  Then it was back on the motorway heading further north to Aston Marina.


We got back to Bicester at about 6.30, and I went to get some fish and chips from the nearby chippy, then drove back to the marina and walked along the towpath to the boat.
