To the boat via the Cotswolds

I set off this morning from home, bound for the Cotswolds, where my sister and her family and our father are having a few days holiday for half term. I met them at Chedworth Roman Villa, where we had a look at the mosaics and did the woodland walk. We had an excellent lunch at The Wheatsheaf in Northleach, as a somewhat belated 80th birthday celebration. Afterwards we needed another walk, so went to the Sherborne Estate.

After a very nice day, I got to Thrupp Wharf at nearly 7pm, and immediately got the Eberspacher going to heat some water. I also turned on a couple of radiators and lit the stove, as it's due to be quite a chilly night. Tomorrow, I'm heading north for a boat test.
