Well the weather has been warmer again and cruising has been very pleasant.  We spent a night in Hungerford.  We had paired with a boat called Octarine for the locks leading down from Great Bedwyn and when we got to Hungerford the 5 of us went off to the pub for lunch.  We had a couple more night stops before we got to Newbury on Friday.  Spent a couple of nights there.  The mooring is by the park which is right in the middle of the town, so handy for a bit of retail therapy!!  Also there is a launderette not too far from the canal, so we are all sorted for a while!!  Yesterday we arrived at Froudes Bridge Marina near Aldermaston.  Falcon will stay here while we go to Poland to see Richard for 10 days.  So it will be about 22^nd of September before we are out on ‘the cut’ again.  So until then bye for now.
