Sunday at Honey Street

This morning Geoff decided to take Barney and see if he could reach the White Horse.........he was defeated by the barbed wire......
He visited the tiny church of Alton Barnes, no service here until this evening.
He also found an RAF connection
Just after 12 our guests arrived, Anne & Keith Hall with two friends of theirs Jan and John.   After pre lunch drinks on Petroc we repaired to the pub for lunch.  It was once again very busy and a fairish wait for our food but it was worth the wait as it was delicious.

Whilst whiling away the rest of the afternoon sitting in the sun we saw a delightful wooden launch pass by, so nice to see a well kept boat in these parts........we seem to be in an area of very scruffy liveaboard boats.........
During this time Petroc was rammed by a canoe (with it's pointed end), skippered (I use the term loosely) by a rather drunken lady.  I was leaning out of the side doors as she went past but there was no apology, just averted her eyes as she went past me.......
Nevertheless it was a very pleasant Sunday in good company........
Onward tomorrow, probably to Devizes unless we find a very good mooring just before.   The chances of this are not great as we don't seem to be able to find any of our nice moorings out in the open away from everything, at least not where we can get into the bank easily.
