Well another week has gone by.  We are moored very close to where we were when I last wrote but we have travelled a bit in between.  We did catch up with Barry and Leyann last week.  They came over from Yelvertoft on Wednesday and after a leisurely lunch in the pub they took us into Daventry.  So after a walk around the town we ended up in Tesco so we were able to do lots of food shopping!!  On Friday we made our way back to Napton, unfortunately in the rain.  Not so bad for me as being a lock free trip I stayed inside, only popping out at the end to help moor.  By then the rain had stopped.  We had gone back to Napton as there was an open day.  Unfortunately the weather still wasn’t very good but we went anyway.  |It was very interesting and we were able to go down into the empty lock and look at the brick floor and the channels where the water comes in.  Being wet was a good excuse to go into the Folly, the pub there for lunch and sit by the fire and dry off!  So tomorrow we will be continuing along the North Oxford Canal towards Rubgy.
