Well, a week in November, on part of the South Oxford canal. I'm in the middle of a reasonably detailed plan for our cruise: suggested departure and arrival times; places to visit. I'm up to Thrupp, which is where we'll have to wind to start heading back to Stockton Top marina.
I've noticed that Bruce has just posted on NBSanity - a fine piece on a fishing competition in dreadful weather. To quote:
By a quarter past two the anglers were giving up, and by three had disappeared from the scene. I asked the last one as he slogged past if it had been worth it.
"Not really", he said, "I got covered in dog muck, broke my glasses and had to fish one-eyed all day."
It's a strange way to enjoy yourself.
I'm off to bed now; the rest of the plan will have to wait.
Day 1 of our hols and not the best start.

A break in the weather at last and a great morning to set off in MB. Took
far longer to reach our destination though, not because of traffic,...
