Boats and Boaters

Were shuffling around a little in our cruising as we fill gaps in our filming when we have been rained off during our last cruise.

Today we passed Whittington and there was Jannock, with no visible crew, so I couldn’t call out to them as last time.

At least I got a picture of the boat this time, perhaps I’ll manage to capture both the boat and the crew next time.

Moored at Fazeley Junction I was looking out of the window and spotted a boat we had seen before.  It was Keith and Mandy on Takin’ our Time, with son and friend (whose names I’ve forgotten already - oh dear).  Just time for them to pull in behind us for a quick exchange of news.

We’re moored at Fazeley Junction, hoping to reach Atherstone and beyond tomorrow to complete another missing chunk of filming.  Then we’ll be returning to Fazeley Junction to see who else we spot.

2. Brian & Diana: I’m afraid we shall miss you as we are at Atherstone and will be winding this morning (Friday) before Hartshill having completed a missing section of filming before heading back to Fazeley Jn to reach Birmingham (Sherborne Wharf) on Sunday or Monday

3. Paul. It was great to see you again. And this time it has not taken us two years to check your blog !! A very successful trip round the Black Country Ring and the Four Counties Ring (just getting through Audlem a few hours before the breach at Shebdon Embankment (the gods were smiling down on us).
