Sunday, we were at Crofton and we visited the pumping station.There are some beautiful country walks around here, that take you over the hills and into the next valleys. Very Nice.

J&M+2, were moored behind us, and two elderly gents had just passed their boat.  Jim had been reading a Womans Own, that I had passed onto Maralyn.  Anyway, I was sitting/hiding in the cratch, and as they passed one old gent said to the other “  Did you see that?  He was reading a womans magazine. Do you suppose he was a queer? “

Monday we went on to Wooton Rivers = No Phone signal, No computer , no TV, AND there wasn’;t a child in sight in this village !!!!  However, it was a very pretty village, with some lovely properties.  Nice 24hr mooring and the weather is good.

Had a nice walk to a place called ……………………………….Cuckoos Knob.  Hee hee

Grow up !!!

Tuesday, ( today), and we are moored outside a pub. !!   Now the thing is, that the moorings are like river moorings on this canal, so it proves so  much easier to moor up at a pub, and obviously we will mozy over to try a pint later.

Still finding this a strange canal. The linear moorings at Pewsey and Honey Street, are quite a stretch, and even going through at tick-over speed( the slowest we can do), there are still people who shout to “slow down”. Can’;t go any slower, and perhaps they should shut up and put up.

 

However, tomorrow is Devizes for a few days. Scooby and Rita ( hello !!!), say we should do the brewery tour. That’s a given. !!!  hope there are some free samples.
