An extra (small) temporary crew member

We had the pleasure of our grandson, Josiah, staying with us last night. This morning he enjoyed the cruise from Old Wolverton to Peartree Bridge, some of the time sitting on the slide ...

... and some of the time on the Morse control.

Progress through Milton Keynes was slow on account of the many moored boats. We passed the new Campbell Wharf Marina ...

with an interesting, although rust-coloured, three-legged footbridge connecting the opposite bank to both sides of the marina entrance.

Ally and Micah met us at Peartree Bridge and we all we went to the pub for a carvery lunch. After A, J and M had gone we relaxed on the boat, going for a towpath walk to Simpson after tea.
