pause at Fenny Compton for very good reason

An excellent early supper on Tuesday at the Wharf Inn.  Provided you order before 6pm you can two of selected meals for £12.......up from £10 last few years but still very good value for money.

Wednesday morning`s call to Leesan was disappointing as their engineer had been delayed a day on the South Coast.  Geoff was not pleased as he does not consider it a priority!   Still it was a nice leisurely day and worth the wait.  Michael was back today and came to see us.  As expected he couldn`t fix it there and then but we had a good chat about our options.   We have to have a modification done to the housing of the cassettes and then the loo has to come out over the winter.  He considers it eminently fixable and is the easiest solution.   Any change of toilet would involve going to a holding tank which we don`t want as that would be even more upheaval....

So thank heaven for the Porta Potti!!!

On our way by 10.30 into a very blustery ride.  Originally we thought we would get to Cropredy, but after the first 4 locks of the Claydon Flight we decided to call it a day.   The wind was making it harder work that necessary......

Delightful quiet mooring which will do us nicely .
