Adrian went to get the car today, so we both walked down the canal to Stoke Station, where he had a train booked to Milton Keynes.
Then it was an Uber to the marina, returning the entry cards to Val the owner, who was there so he was able to have a nice chat, and driving back to Stoke.
Meanwhile I was doing various things on the boat, including launching my new retirement project, a canal-based podcast called The Water Road. The first episode is from the start of our trip, as we went through Stoke Bruerne. It’s available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, and several of the smaller platforms. Click whichever one you prefer, and please have a listen.
Once Adrian was back with the car, we went food shopping. It’s been another sunny day at the marina. A few hire boaters returned this morning, but I didn’t notice any going out. There will probably be more turnover tomorrow.
Meanwhile an email from our friend Paul Balmer tells me that his boat, Waterway Routes, is now for sale through ABNB. Details are here. It’s sad that Paul and Christine have decided they can no longer keep boating, but thankfully Paul will still be producing his very useful maps and his DVDs.
