Dream on ! 

 Radcot Meadow

  say no more

 This bridge is called Bloomer Hole bridge

 Lechlade and Finlay having a wee-wee

 Lechlade from the lock.

 Thames Wild Swimmer.  eat your heart out Peter Webb !!!!! apparently, when he came out he was talking in a high pitched voice.

Saturday.  Radcot, and a lovely meadow mooring.

We actioned a self-pump out outside the pump out at the lock, but met with a slight reprimand. Pump outs must not be done on the side of the lock, in case of “spillage”.This seems a bit wacky, as when a pump out is actioned there can be “spillage”, I had better mention at this point that it was my first time holding the pipe into the container, and my hand was shaking and I did, in fact, have a bit of “Spillage”, well about a cupful, anyway. And then a Snooty Boat, passed us, and they drew our boats out into the river, and with it the poop pipe and again my “spillage” was going into the Thames. !  Personally, we all reckon it was this chappy that said something to the locky, as his nose was in the air. Not due to the sweet odour, of course.

 

Fantastic meadow mooring with dandelions . !  are these the things that make you wee- wee ???

 

The Swan for a pint or two on Sunday. Back to Trundle, blanket on the ground, book, floppy hat. Sorted ! and we decided to stay on Monday also. And watch all the Tupperware boats flying up and down. Spoke to the farmer who owns this land.  A very nice man and I said Thank you for allowing us to moor.  He seemed happy about that, and then he showed me his contraption for measuring the grass.  He needed it to be 208 whatevers to give his 250 dairy herd a good 24hrs munching. But it was only at 187 whatevers.  Cousin John, you may be able to clarify what the whatevers may be.  Millimetres ???  

Tuesday and we are moored at yet another lovely meadow mooring in Lechlade. These could be £4 per night.   Mick has managed to get away with it so far, but reckon he may be stumping up £12 for 3 nights. He has said something about trying to do a deal with the farmer, seeing as we are 2 boats.

John Bates, have been looking for shed for you, but am afraid down here there are none.  There are boat-houses and grand summer houses, but no sheds, so you’ll have to wait until we are on the canal again for pics of shabbysheds.
