We tied up in Braunston opposite the Boathouse pub at about 1100 this morning having watered and winded.
The Boathouse has changed! No more "Two for One" deals. It's still a Marstons outfit, but the menu is much reduced. We shall be eating there tomorrow evening, so I shall be able to report on the quality of the food. It's standard pub grub now, with no specials board. The prices are perhaps a little higher than usual for this sort of thing - but I might be out of touch.
We walked up to the church for a recce for tomorrow, then called in at the butcher's for a gammon joint and walked to the canal by the bottom lock. We were on our way to accept the offer of afternoon tea on Faithful; on the way we passed Melaleuca. If you're still there on Sunday we'll call in and say hello.
Dutch Courage tied up in front of us this afternoon; in the evening Richard and Elizabeth came for drinks and a chat.
Tomorrow is the BCF Spring Conference in the church, so we'll be busy.

our overnight mooring. We were expecting to be a little late in leaving as
